Coronavirus Stimulus Payment

The news reports say that payments will be made via direct deposit.  I usually have TurboTax subtract my fee from my federal tax refund.  I believe this is processed by Santa Barbara Tax Products Group.  I believe my refund comes from SBTPG rather than directly from the IRS.  So I am not sure the IRS has my direct deposit information on file.  Will I sill be able to get my stimulus payment through direct deposit?

Yes. any intermediary bank merely temporarily hold the money to deduct fees. The balance is forwarded to your bank account.

Can it be confirmed that SBTPG left their temp routing account open after processing the actual refund? If it isn't still open what happens?

If you had your refund directly deposited to your bank account, your stimulus payment will be routed to your bank account.

 

What do I need to know about the coronavirus stimulus package?

Until the details have been worked out and provided to TurboTax. TurboTax can not provide an answer to your question regarding Santa Barbara Tax Products Group. This link CARES Act Update Coronavirus Stimulus Payment Information has information directly from Santa Barbara Tax Products Group that you may find helpful.

FYI ALL  .... THERE IS NO INSTRUCTIONS YET ... EVEN MY PROFESSIONAL PROGRAM HAS NOTHING YET ... PATIENCE WILL BE NEEDED.   

 

THE STIMULUS CHECKS WILL NOT START GOING OUT FOR 3 WEEKS OR MORE AND THEY WILL NOT ALL GO OUT ON DAY ONE ... IT TOOK MONTHS TO GET THEM OUT LAST TIME.   

 

WORD TO THE WISE ... DON'T EXPECT THE MONEY ON ANY CERTAIN DATE AND YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED.

If you look at your 1040 even if you had turbotax deduct your fees it should have your banks direct deposit information on it. So the people that had fees deducted should be just fine.

If you didn’t receive a third Economic Impact Payment (stimulus) or got less than the full amount, you may be eligible to claim a Recovery Rebate Credit on your 2021 federal tax return.

 

In TurboTax,The Recovery Rebate Credit will be found in the Federal Review section.

 

To claim the Credit:

1. Enter all your federal return information as you would normally

2. During the Federal Review, we’ll check if you meet the requirements for the stimulus payment

3. If you meet the requirements, you'll see the Did you get a third stimulus? screen

4. Answer a few questions about any payments you've already received and then we'll let you know if the Recovery Rebate Credit applies

 

 Missing first and second payments may only be claimed on a 2020 tax return.
