COVID Stimulus Money Confusion: Some People Will Get Debit Cards This Time

If you're patiently awaiting an IRS direct deposit into your bank account (like the one you got last time) you may be in for a surprise.

They're doing it differently this time around.

Amber Frias reports:

As millions of stimulus payments are starting to arrive, many are surprised about how they're getting their money.
The U.S. Treasury Department started sending out cards to about eight million Americans last week.
What may be confusing is some people who got paper checks for the first stimulus payment, are now receiving debit cards.
Here are some tips on how to recognize the debit you are receiving is real:
-The card will arrive in a plain envelope with the U.S. Treasury Department seal
-The issuing bank name will be displayed on the card, look for MetaBank on the back side
-Instructions on how to activate and use your card will also be included.
If you accidentally destroyed or threw out your card, you need to call customer service immediately at 1-800 240-8100.
