If you used a refund settlement product to help pay preparer fees, get your refund more quickly, or load your refund onto a direct debit card, your Economic Impact Payment (EIP) may have been directed to the bank account associated with those services.

The bank is required to reject the EIP if the associated account is closed or no longer active. Once that payment is returned to the IRS and processed, it will be reissued as soon as possible.

Use the IRS Online Account to track your EIP3, and request your account transcript to track EIP1 and EIP2.
