At least some clients who had their taxes prepared by H&R Block or who used Intuit’s TurboTax software are complaining they are having problems getting their second economic impact payments via direct deposit in their checking accounts.
Although some of clients of the two firms are saying they had no issue quickly receiving the first stimulus checks from the U.S. government in the spring, they are complaining on Twitter about a snag this time around.
Typical of the tweets was one by somebody identifying herself as an H&R Block client, who asked Monday: “Why did my first stimulus check go into my account but now this time I don’t recognize the bank info…. I have been in need of getting this check, now I’m just filled with stress and worry.”
H&R Block “understands stimulus checks are vitally important for millions of Americans,” it said in a statement provided to ThinkAdvisor Tuesday. “The IRS determines where second stimulus payments were sent, and in some cases, money was sent to a different account than the first stimulus payment last spring,” it said.
