Wow, that’s a problem. Was she eligible for a stimulus based on her 2019 or 2020 income? If so, then I have no idea how you will find out if it’s your money or hers! Maybe a second check will come soon, and solve the problem! In the first round of stimulus payments last year, they sent letters letting you know your check had been deposited. but not this time around.
Or the bank may have rejected a check in YOUR name if it was sent to your sister’s account. In that case, the IRS would re-send it by mail. So keep watching your mailing address on your tax return.
It’s time for you to have your OWN CHECKING account! It’s free and if you are in Chicago go to a Wintrust branch to open the account. There is no minimum deposit and you get a debit card. And next year you won’t have this problem with your tax refund, or earned income tax credit (EITC) because it will be directly deposited into your own bank account.
