Hey guys. I recently filed (March 30) and received my tax return on April 15. My 2019 address and bank was updated when I filed the return because  its info is different from my 2018 return. I have yet to receive the stimulus payment. Wen I log onto the website and input my updated info it says it doesn't match their records. So I tried old address and its saying the same thing. Should I be concerned?Shouldnt my updated info be on file since I have received my DD to my new bank?There's no one to contact.

There is probably a timing issue involved here.  It is possible that your stimulus payment went to the account on file from your 2018 tax return.  It is also possible that your stimulus payment has not been processed yet.  There is no timetable or schedule payments database to verify that or not.  However, I would not be too concerned at this point.  If you qualify, which you most likely do, you will get the stimulus payment, even if it is delayed.  In a worst-case scenario, you will get the payment as an additional refund when you file your 2020 tax return.   A delayed payment is probably more likely in your situation though.   The money will go back to the IRS if the 2018 bank info is incorrect and then they will re-issue it to the correct account that is currently on file.  Or you may receive a paper-check.  You won't lose out on the money in any case.
