When will the economic impact payment arrive?

According to the IRS, if you filed your previous tax returns online, you should receive your payment as a direct deposit in April, based on the account information from your previous refund. If you did not file your previous tax returns online, you can securely submit your account information to the IRS at https://www.irs.gov/coronavirus/non-filers-enter-payment-info-here, or you will receive your payment as a check in the mail. The IRS has said checks could arrive as soon as May, but it could take until August to get all the checks out.
