COVID-19 Updates
December 29, 2020 -- Stimulus Check Disbursement Causing Online Banking Overload
As part of the recent COVID-19 relief bill, the federal government will begin releasing stimulus checks on Monday, January 4, 2021. As with previous government disbursements, funds will be released in waves and either arrive by mail or posted directly to your Bippus State Bank account upon receipt. You can check the status of your payment by visiting the IRS GET MY PAYMENT web tool.
In anticipation of the upcoming stimulus payments, we please ask for everyone's patience while checking your account online. To avoid excessive volume to our online banking platform causing delays in load times, we kindly ask that you log in only ONCE A DAY to monitor your account.
