  • I'm trying to figure out if I need to fill out the non filers tool for my stimulus check. I only made 2,000 w2 dollars this year and filed my taxes and got my refund on april 15th. It says you dont need to do anything if you filed taxes but it always says if you were required to.. well I wasn't and filed only to recieve what little I paid about 300 dollars. I have tried the get my payment tool and get the same error not available message many of us have. The non filers tool says dont use it if you've filed, but says use it if you are low income and aren't required to file. I dont want to mess anything up, and I got my return on a turbo card and expected it to get my stimulus Wednesday when others did. PLEASE HELP. I CANT GET ANY ANSWERS

I haven't filed since 2016 I haven't worked. I'm still getting the payment status not available message and like I said I wasnt required to file. How sure are you I shouldn't use the non filers tool and should just wait? I got an email form turbotax on Wednesday saying congrats yada yada your stimulus payment should be today and such but never got it. I'm all upset about this whole thing and dont know what to do.

if you are on social security - nothing to do - the direct deposits are supposed to occur by the end of the month

 

otherwise, the non-filer submission is the way to go:

Hey I’m having the same problem. Did you end up getting your stimulus? And did you use the non-filers option?
