I'm handling an estate. Last night the administrator called to tell me he received one for the decedent.

Yep, I got one too...
My dad passed away July 21, 2019 and I spent the next 9 months settling his estate. His 2019 tax return and an additional return for his family trust were filed in February. I closed his checking and savings accounts last month after his tax refund was direct deposited.
Yesterday I get the letter addressed to my dad "Decd" informing me that his $1,200 stimulus check would be direct deposited into his checking account. The account no longer exists so hopefully the money will just bounce back to the Treasury Dept. I have no desire to try and capture this obvious overpayment but I sure would like to get the checks that are due my bride and I.
Oh, the letter was printed in English on one side and Spanish on the other.. What the hell is up with that?

Wife got one for her and her late husband. It's only written in English. Funny thing is IRS stills owes her more than the stimulus in a tax refund. Been several months since we heard from them at all. I check the bank everyday for mine.

I received a stimulus check for my deceased mother with DECD after her name. On the outside of the envelope, in bold type, it says "IF RECIPIENT DECEASED check here and drop in mailbox"

Got a check...
After receiving the letter two days ago stating that my deceased father would have his stimulus check direct deposited {I had already closed the account} todays mail brought the actual check. As noted in an earlier post this envelope had instructions to check a box on the outside of the envelope if my deceased father was actually dead, he is, and to drop the unopened envelope back in any mail box... I did.
Now if those idiots in Washington would just send the two checks that my bride and I are entitled to, but I am not holding my breath.... sigh.

Talked to my cousin today about this. After reading this, I referred it to him and he said he had gotten a $1200 check addressed to his fathers name and deceased after it!
