Tracking the status of your stimulus check
1. Go to the IRS' Get My Payment page and click the blue 'Get My Payment' button to see the status of your stimulus check payment.
2. Once you arrive on the next page about authorized use, just click ‘OK’.
3. Next, on the Get My Payment page, enter your Social Security number (SSN) or Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN), your date of birth, your street address and your ZIP or postal code. Click Continue.
On the next page, the portal will show your payment status, letting you know if it has already been scheduled or if your payment status has yet to be determined.
Children born or adopted in 2020
If you had or adopted a child in 2020 or there was a change in dependent status since your 2019 tax filing the parent or qualifying relative could still be eligible for the $500 payment. But it will not be paid in via the current batch of stimulus check payments and will instead need to be claimed in your 2020 tax return as an additional credit. This is because the IRS is basing stimulus check payments on from your 2019 or 2018 tax return, which won’t reflect children born or adopted this year, or any change in dependent status.
