To send the latest payment to Americans, the IRS is using account information that was either provided on your 2019 tax return, non-filer registration, entered into the "" tool before Dec. 22 or provided by a federal agency issuing benefits — such as the Social Security Administration, Veteran Affairs or the Railroad Retirement Board, according to its website.
Currently, this account information including direct deposit details cannot be changed or updated, according to the IRS. That means that if you have a new bank account and didn't previously update your information with the IRS, you won't get your payment. In the first round of checks to Americans, if a bank rejected and returned a stimulus payment because of incorrect account information, the IRS would then mail out a paper check or debit card. But this time, the IRS won't do that.
"The IRS is working hard to deliver the second Economic Impact Payment quickly, as required by law, while still preparing for the upcoming 2021 tax filing season," the agency said on its site, . "Due to the compressed timeline, the IRS is unable to reissue and mail checks and instead encourages people to file their 2020 tax return electronically to claim and receive the Recovery Rebate Credit as quickly as possible."
