Why Are Some Tax Rebate Checks Delayed?
Meanwhile, some people are wondering why their tax rebate check has been delayed. If you used a tax preparer, such as H&R Block, and deducted the preparer’s fee from your refund, you’ll be getting a paper check rebate, even if you chose direct deposit. It’s the same for everyone who chose the rapid refund option, which is when the preparer paid you the tax refund on the spot instead of waiting for the government to pay. The bottom line is that you will get your stimulus check, but if you deducted the preparer’s fee or chose a rapid refund, it could be a month later than you expected.
