If you have checked your account and did not find a deposit, you can go to the newly launched IRS website called "Get my payment" to see the status of your payment.
A person who did not have to pay income tax or does not receive Social Security benefits can go to this Internal Revenue website tool and click on "Non-filers: Enter Payment Info Here" to submit direct deposit account information to receive a payment, according to Treasury Sec. Steven Mnuchin.
The payment will include $1,200 checks to adults who filed their income tax under the classification of “single” who had an adjusted gross income below $75,000 and those who filed as “head of household” with an AGI of less than $112,500.
Married couples who filed taxes jointly and made less than $150,000 will receive $2,400.
In addition, the government will pay all classifications of filers an additional $500 per dependent child.
