Update as of December 31, 2020

Where is my stimulus payment? 

The federal government is sending a second round of economic impact payments (EIP) to approximately 140 million eligible Americans over the first three weeks of January. Direct deposit payments may begin arriving as early as Monday, January 4th, 2021 and continue into next week. 

United Bank is working closely with the Treasury Department to help eligible Americans receive those payments quickly, securely and safely during this challenging time. If you are expecting a payment, your funds will be made available to you immediately despite the transaction reflecting a pending status.

For the most up-to-date information related to your EIP payment and eligibility, visit IRS.gov/coronavirus. Please continue to monitor the IRS site for information. The IRS will be periodically making updates related to payment and eligibility information. Additionally, the Get My Payment portal will be available soon.

We want to make sure you have access to all the financial services we offer to access your accounts without needing to visit a branch.

CARES Act

CARES Act

The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act, also known as the CARES Act, is a law meant to address the economic fallout of the 2020 coronavirus pandemic in the United States. In addition to the relief payments to all eligible US residents and a substantial small business assistance program -- Paycheck Protection Program, tax credits for employee retention, and other tax measures meant to relieve the burden for the short term, there are significant allowances involving retirement plans and the ability to access those funds for emergency needs. One of the things the CARES Act does is drastically changes required minimum distribution rules for 2020:
  • Delays date for 2019 IRS contributions to July 15, 2020
  • Required minimum distributions waived for 2020 and do not have to be made up
  • For 401(k)s, the loan limit is the lesser of $100,000 or 100% of employee's vested account balance in the plan (for 180 days after enactment date of March 27, 2020). Hardship rules apply

For coronavirus-related hardship distributions from IRAs and 401(k)s:

  • Waives the 10% early withdrawal penalty tax
  • Exempts distributions from the mandatory 20% federal tax withholding
  • Permits re-contribution within three years
With many Americans struggling in 2020 because of the pandemic, having more flexibility on distributions can be beneficial. For more information on the CARES Act, visit
