The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) named its direct deposit portal "Get My Payment". The portal will allow people to establish direct deposits with the IRS, allowing them to get their stimulus payments faster. It will be open and ready for use in mid-April, says the IRS.
Although the portal is not yet open, the IRS has provided information on what it will offer. In addition to offering Americans the ability to establish direct deposit for their stimulus payment, it will allow people the option to track their payment schedule and view their payment status.
The IRS will open this portal no later than Friday, April 17. You can sign up on the IRS Economic Impact Payment page every day to see if the portal is still open.
When the IRS direct deposit portal is open, you will need certain information to set up direct deposit. In particular, you will need your bank information so that the IRS knows where to directly deposit your stimulus payment.
In general, when setting up direct deposit, you generally need to provide the following information: your bank name, your bank account routing, and account numbers, and a number of personal details such as your mailing address, email address, or phone number. You may need to verify your identity in some additional way, such as offering your social security number in addition to your bank information.
Much of the information you provide to the IRS is private, such as your social security number or bank account information. For that reason, Americans should only provide their information through the IRS direct deposit portal, and not through unregistered third-party sites.
If you're not sure where to find your routing and account numbers for your bank account, you can find it in the following three places: on your bank's website, in your bank application, or on a paper check. The routing number on a paper check is nine digits and the account number is longer. The other number is your check number, and you won't need it to set up direct deposit on the IRS portal.
