$600 stimulus checks will start showing up in some peoples’ bank accounts tonight

[Andy Meek]

• Some Americans may start to see their new stimulus check for $600 hit their bank accounts as soon as tonight.
• That's according to Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin, who confirmed late Tuesday afternoon that the disbursement process is now underway -- and that stimulus checks in paper form would be sent out starting on Wednesday.
• Congress is still trying to work out whether it will approve sending Americans a $2,000 stimulus check.

Check your bank account online later tonight, because it sounds like some people may see their new stimulus check for $600 deposited into their account as soon as this evening, according to a series of tweets Tuesday from Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin.

Mnuchin had previously said that the vast majority of disbursements following the approval of $600 stimulus checks as part of the recently passed $900 billion COVID relief bill will come in the form of direct deposits into individual bank accounts. That means the process should unfold considerably faster than it did the first time around earlier this year, after Congress passed the $2.2 trillion CARES Act -- which then meant new systems and tools needed to be put into place to disburse and track the money, not to mention Americans needing to give their bank information to the IRS if they hadn't already.
