"COVID-9 Stimulus Check: Can The IRS Direct Deposit It? Will They Mail it?"

The stimulus checks will be sent to people based off of 2018 or 2019 tax returns, whichever was filed last.

For this reason, your check will be sent to the address that the IRS has on file, in relation to your 2018 or 2019 tax form.


If you checked the option for direct deposit on either of these tax returns, then your stimulus check will likely be sent to you by direct deposit, as has been done in the past.

It takes four to six weeks to for a change of address request to officially process, according to the IRA. It’s fully possible that the service will expedite these changes, or offer a new way to choose where your stimulus check is sent, in the days to come.
