- Up this point, there were few options available to taxpayers who have a question about their coronavirus stimulus payment, beyond visiting IRS.gov and checking the “Get My Payment” section.
- Now, however, the IRS has started adding 3,500 people who can answer questions from taxpayers by phone, and the number to call is 1-800-919-9835.

Instead of constantly visiting the IRS “Get My Payment” page when you’re trying to determine the status of your coronavirus stimulus check, the tax agency is now offering another solution for anyone who has questions about their direct payment from the federal government.
If you don’t mind waiting, the IRS now has dedicated staff — some 3,500 people to be exact — to man phone lines and take your questions live, as the distribution of payments rolls along following the initial rollout that began more than a month ago now. The number to call is 1-800-919-9835, but it seems that service, at least initially, will be limited. That number, for example, connects users to an automated recording that reminds callers most people will receive one of these payments automatically.
