its called stimulus check 2020--american based fb group--ive checked mine 3 times already--no such luck--now locked out--when was the last time u checked your GMP before today?
I check the get my payment site once a day between 5pm and 6pm our time.
I checked yesterday and it did not show a payment date, but when I checked today, the payment date was there.
Sorry yours hasn't shown yet, but hopefully it will be there next time you check.

there's lots of people today on FB reporting on the new aug 19th payment date--im with u... may 1st
SHOCK!! I just went to the get my payment site and there it is as well. Scheduled to be paid Aug. 19th.
Hope yours now shows it as well.
By the way, what group in FB are you talking about? Guess it's all those missing checks in Thailand from April 24th to May 1st. That obviously was a bad batch that was sent. I know there were also some from May 8th and 15th as well but not as many.

My bank account is US based.
I basically also have the exact same situation as you except that my check's original mailing date was one week later on May 1st.
So in a perfect world, I am hoping I will get a deposit date to my bank account the end of this week..please, please!
Hope all goes well and you get your deposit this week.

Based on my 2018 tax filing the IRS stated that they would mail a check to me in Thailand on 1-May. It never came. Then I went to the Get My Payment website which allowed me to enter my bank account information. For the last month I have received a notice that I am eligible for the payment but they do not know when they will make it.
So last night I called the IRS using this number; +1 267 941-1000. After waiting 20 minutes the first representative hung up on me. I called back just to talk with another person 20 minutes later.
What a complete waste of time. They have no information except to admit that their system is totally screwed up. That this is a new thing and that is why they are having so much trouble.
Sorry, but the US has some very good computing technology. This is simple. They have my account, just deposit the money I am owed.
So at this time I am not going to spend any more time on this. I will just apply for the tax credit next year. It is funny that the representative did not even understand this. What a shame to see the US become what it is right now.
A couple of questions-
Did you call them up after 9 weeks to let them know you did not receive your check and to re issue a new check?
Did they say if your stimulus would be mailed to you or get deposited to your bank account?
Did they give any timeframe or give you advice as what to do?
Thanks

What does GMP display for your current status?
It still shows you are eligible for payment with my last 4 digits of my account.
By the way, I meant to say obviously August 17th in my previous post when my 6 week period will be finished-senior moment!

After having successfully entered my bank/1040 details, my GMP page has since reverted to show the original "check mailed May 8, 2020".
Has that been other people's experience in a similar situation?
Sorry to hear. That is not good. I surely would call the IRS to see what the problem is or you might be waiting forever. Hope all is ok and good luck. Still waiting for my deposit, but my 6 week lost check process will be finished on July 17th, so we'll see.

does the website give u payment date? I assume not--the system is so messed up--some people reporting they got before payment date. some got payment 3 days after entering bank info etc.... no consistency in how this works
No payment date and yes, some people have been paid without a payment date given.
I assume that we need to wait until the 6 week lost check process is finished and then they will deposit the money-I hope!!
The person that got paid I think was over the 6 week waiting period.

Check mailed May 8
Not received
Faxed Form 3911 on July 30
GMP today asks for bank/1040 info: successfully entered
Can anyone taking a similar path advise on when to look for the DirDep?
Check mailed May 1st
Not received
Asked for replacement July 6th and 3 days later asked for bank info and successfully entered.
Still waiting for deposit as well

Did u get anything resolved when you called the IRS?
First off, so glad you finally got everything to work.
The only thing that got resolved was to start the 6 week process for a lost check however, about 3 days later, the get my payment site allowed me to put in my DD details, so I hope the payment will be done by DD instead of having another check sent. I don't think they will make the deposit until after the 6 weeks has passed. I called on July 6th, entered my bank details on July 10th and still waiting.

I filed 2018, I am on Social Security with direct deposit. On checking the IRS site says a check was sent May 8 to the addtress where I lived a year ago. With US-Thailand mail down to a crawl ...
I would call the IRS and ask for a replacement. It is more than the 9 weeks. Mine was sent on May 1st and lost, and I called to get replacement.

Did they say how long the site would be under maintenance? Asking cause I finally got my accurate agi number and want to see if it works?
No, just the message the system is undergoing maintenance. Rooting for you!!

no I didn't put any bank info on form 3099. Since the "refund" was not a direct deposit I left all the banking info fields blank
Just FYI, I called the IRS on a Monday night at 7pm our time and my wait was only 4 minutes! Yes, you read right, 1,2,3, 4 minutes.
Maybe the nightmare of calling is over. Also, the get my payment site as of now is undergoing maintenance.
The last time they did that, I was no longer able to log in with my address and get the get my payment page to open. Fingers crossed.

Can anyone expand on the ability to CORRECT, or UPDATE one's Direct Deposit routing/account details?
I did file a 2018 and 2019 return, but made a mistake entering my DD details. I would like to correct that if possible?
Barring that, I guess we can take credit on the EIP payment on our 2020 1040 if we didn't receive it?
As you have read in several posts, the only way you can enter bank details now is to call the IRS and tell them you did not receive your check and to send a replacement. In a few days when you go to the get my payment site, the box will change and now ask you to enter your bank details. This is what I did for my check that was mailed on May 1st and never received.

I agree but maybe that poster had some insight on how he got his info accepted.. In an earlier post I believe from ubonjoe it said account numbers should include the dashs between numbers--i did not put those in i will try that later. I don't see how that would fix but u never know.. Message I get is information provided does not match your records on file. You never know that could be the same message if bank account number is not formatted correctly
The same thing happened to me. All I can tell you is what worked for me.
First, use your 2018 tax return info. Make sure your AGI is correct.
If you did NOT have to pay taxes OR you are NOT getting a refund, then it doesn't matter what box you check as to I am getting a refund or I owe taxes, just make sure you check one of the boxes and for the amount, simply enter 0.
This allowed me to enter my bank details. Hope that works.

What numbers are you talking about? Your AGI and refund amounts?
Never mind, I just read you post above. Sorry about that.

Hello--Did u ever get your check? Mine also said sent on May 1st--and I got the trump letter in late june but still no check
I never did get my check and on July 6th, I called to get a replacement check.
The get my payment site changed to get my bank details which I did and hope I get the payment by direct deposit instead of waiting for a check.

Update...I got it????
Original mailing date of May 1. Check returned back to IRS early June. Called IRS, gave them a new address, and got check reissued in mid-June. Get My Payment magically starts working in early July and I'm able to enter US bank account info. Waited for awhile, never got a payment date posted to Get My Payment, and then Get My Payment stopped working for me about a week later.
This morning logged into online banking and saw the $1200 had just hit my account.
Hope I'm sorted for stimulus round 2 since my account info is in the system now.
Nice to hear. So happy for you. I hope the same thing happens to me very soon. I don't want to have the stress of waiting for another check to come and who knows how long it would take to get if at all. I'll let you know when I get my good news.

No payment yet, getting the same message as you. Get My Payment just says "your payment will be deposited into account xxx" but there is no date. I will give it to the end of the month and then call again. No check or notice of payment letter has been received at the US address I gave for the replacement.
Just filed 2019 return last week, snail mail to Austin, with a new foreign address. Hoping that doesn't delay things even further!
I just checked the get my payment again and it changed to say you are eligible for the payment and we will update this page once we schedule your payment date. Did this happen to you as well?
By the way, the return you mailed to Austin will not be processed for many months as the IRS said they are many months behind in processing paper returns, so I don't think that will be an issue, but it is the IRS.

And the saga continues...
Decided to check Get My Payment again this afternoon, with the new address I gave when I called in to get my check reissued a month ago. Got the same "info does not match what we have on file" error. Oh well, not a surprise. Then, just to see if the error message would be different, I decided to put my old 2018 butchered address from the IRS into Get My Payment.
And what did I see when I clicked "Submit"? ????A blue "Enter Bank Account Info" button ????. Entered all the required info, clicked submit, half expecting it to return an error. Nope, I got "Your payment will be deposited into account xxx".
Now will it actually be deposited, since the IRS rep on the phone said the reissued check would have to be mailed and a direct deposit wasn't possible anymore? I don't know, but I figured I may as well get my banking info into the system and sort it out later. If there is a 2nd stimulus I should in theory be good to go for that one at least. Will probably call again next week and see if a phone rep can shed any light on this.
Did you get your payment deposited to your account? If not, what does the get my payment now say?
I ask, because that is exactly what happened to me today. Check was to be mailed on May 1st. Called the IRS for a replacement on July 6th and told me the same thing as your agent said, but today when I went to the get my payment, the blue button also appeared for me to enter my bank details. It was successful, but it only said my payment would go to that account but did not give me a date. Thanks for answer in advance.

Hell and I am still waiting.????
MSN.COMAs lawmakers consider another round of payments, here’s what went wrong the first time.I feel your pain. I am in exactly the same boat. Curious, are you checking the IRS get my payment to see if they updated your status as to when your replacement card is scheduled to be mailed?

I went back a couple of pages but haven't found an answer to this question.
Has anybody with the payment status "We scheduled your check to be mailed on May 15, 2020 to the address we have on file for you. ..." received a check in Thailand? Thanks.
Yes, I do remember at least one person saying that they got their check that was dated May 15th.

Question for you - Did you have to go through the "lost check" process before the check will be reissued? I'm wondering because I got the same info when I got my check reissued, minus the part about calling back in 3 weeks to check on the process. I didn't have to do the "lost check" process as the IRS had my first check returned back to them, so I'm wondering if the part about calling back is just for those going through this process.
Yeah, screwed up to put it mildly. Is the IRS just trolling us at this point?????
Yes, I have to go thru the lost check process. I have no faith or confidence that that the process has started or will take 6 weeks or less or that I receive my new check. Just totally frustrated with the whole thing, but nothing else I can do.

May 1 was a check any others will be debt card. The above info is correct. They are open 7am to 10pm ECT. You may need to try a few time but stay with it. +12679411000
This just shows you how screwed up this whole process and system is.
I just got off the phone with the IRS and believe it or not, I only had to wait 4 minutes for a live person.
My check was scheduled to be mailed on May 1st. The agent said my check was actually mailed out on May 11th and it was a check.
She told me my replacement would also be a check and not a debit card and I could not give direct deposit info to change.
She said it would take 6 weeks, but I should call back in 3 weeks to make sure the process was started or where it stands.
When will the madness end. I bet you, with my luck, I will get the "lost" check this week.

Americans, Have You Received Your Virus Stimulus Check From Trump Yet?

Unfortunately, nothing will really help you as you can't access the get my payment site in order to insert your bank details even if form 3911 works or when you called originally, they opened it up for you, but you never knew. Hate to hear.
