#stimulus

I mailed my taxes in April and still haven't received my refunded. Status said information not available, although a report I managed to get said it's received it in Oct. and processed it the same month but still no refund.

I realize that this is a late answer, but hopefully these answers may help

(A) except for the most current completed tax year, the IRS will issue a paper check, rather than using direct deposit. Example: if the calendar year is now 2021, the most recently completed tax year is 2020. A refund for tax year 2020 would be by direct deposit. A refund for tax year 2019, or earlier, that is not yet processed will be paid on a paper check

(B) if you filed an amended return, or a paper return, of the return is flagged due to an error in the return, the IRS has to process that return manually through the data entry process. This takes extra time. The estimates I read are that 25 million returns from tax year 2019 were still unprocessed as of 1/1/2021

(C) the IRS is not trying to steal your money. The bottlenecks are that: there were three stimulus checks to be processed; there was/is a pandemic (with restrictions on where people physically work); and, for the past four years, at least, the budgets for the IRS has been cut. Both for personnel and technology

(D) you can claim any undelivered stimulus payment as a credit for your 2020 tax year

(E) if you are owed a refund for a prior year, you may get interest added to your refund.

(We got our 2018 refund a couple of months ago, our 2020 refund about a week ago, and we are still waiting for our 2019 refund)

Nope that's not the reason. Had to do with my identity theft and there is no reason why I wouldn't have qualified

i have not yet gotten any stimulus money and i filed for it ,been told the irs is way behind on all checks
