How to track the third stimulus check and find your payment’s status

The feds have created a way to see when your third coronavirus stimulus check will arrive — but it’s far from foolproof.

The Internal Revenue Service reopened its “Get My Payment” tool so taxpayers can track the status of the $1,400 payments that started hitting bank accounts over the weekend.

The tool should be familiar to anyone who received either of the first two economic impact payments Congress authorized last year. It’s a simple online form that should tell you whether your payment has been processed and when to expect it — after you enter your Social Security number, birth date, street address and ZIP code.

But the tool’s latest iteration faced complaints from people who didn’t see details about when the much-needed money would arrive.

The IRS says there are three reasons you might see that vague message. It’s possible that your payment just hasn’t been processed yet, or the IRS doesn’t have enough information to send it to you.

  1. Doubt I’ll throw my personal information online for this mess. Do you realize how much you will be paying in order to receive 14 bills. Just like unwanted interest on borrowed money or anything.

  2. They have my direct deposit info and still send me a DEBIY card which is about useless as can be. I cannot draw money on it to spend and have to use it as a C/C.

    TOTAL BS and incompetent Federal workers.
