The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has started disbursing a second batch of stimulus cash and is urging people to keep an eye out for paper checks and debit cards arriving in the mail after some people threw them away in earlier relief rounds, thinking they were junk mail.
Eligible Americans will soon see the money showing up in their bank accounts, the IRS said in a statement on Monday. While the official date for payments made electronically via direct deposit is Wednesday, March 24, the IRS started processing some payments on Friday, and so some people might already see the money in their bank accounts as “provisional” or “pending” deposits.
