Q. I chose direct deposit for my 2007 tax refund
but also requested a Refund Anticipation Loan (RAL) from my preparer.
How does that affect my stimulus payment?A. Taxpayers who use RALs or enter into any other loan
or financial agreement with their tax professional
cannot receive their stimulus payments by Direct Deposit
and instead will get a paper check.Q. Can my stimulus payment be directly deposited
onto a stored value card or debit card where a
bank product such as a RAL/RAC is not involved?A. No. [New 4/14/08]
