Some Americans say their stimulus checks are being deposited in the wrong bank accounts, an issue that happened during the first two rounds of direct payments, too.

Lori Young, 52, didn’t recognize the bank account destination for her third stimulus check.

“I’m very frustrated. I have so many bills to pay,” says Young. “I have a steady income with my Social Security, but I have a lot of medical issues. I was relying on these stimulus checks to help me pay off my bills.”The issue with wrong bank accounts had popped up among filers in the first two rounds who had set up a tax advance in previous years when filing returns, tax professionals say.

The IRS is basing the third round of stimulus checks off tax returns from 2020 or 2019, whichever is more recent. "If you get this message, either we have not yet processed your payment, or you are not eligible for a payment," the IRS said.

Of course mine is set to go into a closed joint account with my ex wife.... here we go again!

Doesn't really sound like a Government error considering the taxpayer has to fill in THEIR address and THEIR banking information on THEIR tax returns.

Did the banks accept those wrongful payments?

Effing Trump!!! Oh wait...

More than 100 million payments are expected to be payable on March 17 via direct deposit. You can check the status of your payment here:

Then why didn't the people fix the mistake after it happened the first time? Is it the gov't fault that people don't take care of these things? If they knew the first time why not fix it.

That's a total mistake
