I checked the IRS portal and it said my check was scheduled to be mailed out on May 22, 2020.  As of today, we have not received our check.  We do not have direct deposit with the IRS,  Is there anyway I can find out what happened?

Wait a bit longer.  It seems to me like mail is taking longer than normal lately.  Probably due to decreased staff working.

@songbird  that´s six days. Hope it shows up by Saturday because of everything that´s happening now.

Some people are getting theirs by debit card in a plain white envelope so just incase you see something like that, open it.

@songbirdI received mine the last week in April. I just went back to Get My Payment and put in my info and it told me that a direct deposit was made to my account. Just wanted to see if it would give me any information.

Could you check again and see if it was sent out?

@songbird,I just saw on the news that they are going to be prepaid Visa cards. Make sure you check all your mail and not toss something out you might think is junk mail. It may be coming from Metabank. Google it to make sure.

Still waiting for mine, too.

@catter70  Yes, we received a Visa Debit card yesterday. From MetaBank.

@queendiva  were you able to check irs.gov and check Get My Payment? You will need to put your SS#, Date of Birth, Address. That should give you an idea of when you should receive it.

Maybe you have read that some people have gotten theirs by Debit Card in a plain white envelope, so look out for that also.

Ours took longer than expected, but arrived in the mail.

@songbird    You may be getting one of the Visa debit cards.  Hope you didn't receive it, think it was junk mail and throw it away.  That's how they're sending the stimulus payments now.
