The tool also will allow users to track the status of their payments. They will need to enter basic information, including their Social Security number, date of birth and mailing address.
The IRS says the “Get My Payment” tool is an online app that can be used on any desktop, phone or tablet. The app does not need to be downloaded from an app store.
