last 2 digits are 56

the link on yahoo that said the payments were coming earlier than usual said i'd receive mine by may 5th... and i dont have it yet, but on the irs website it said no later may 9th, so hopefully i have it by the end of the week then. i wanna just put it in my money market account asap.

5/5/2008 10:21:30 AM

i think i'd go with what the IRS says since they are the ones issuing the checks.

5/5/2008 10:30:32 AM

^yeah i agree. was hoping to have it today, but hopefully sometime this week by friday i guess..

5/5/2008 10:34:12 AM

seems like this stimulus package is a big waste of money

5/5/2008 10:37:26 AM

I should be getting my check before Friday, I can't wait!

Of course, I might as well just have the gov't send it directly to American Express

5/5/2008 10:42:50 AM

according to the IRS website an individual's payment could be 2 weeks after their date.

here is a tracker...

https://sa2.www4.irs.gov/irfof/IRServlet?app=IRACTC

mine doesnt show on it either

5/5/2008 11:10:04 AM

mines on there. i thought i was only getting $300....

i'm getting $600...hellz yea!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

5/5/2008 11:21:59 AM

weak, mine isn't showing up.. hopefully i still get it on friday though.. it's looking doubtful. i filed mine as early as possible too. like Early Feb.

5/5/2008 11:28:02 AM

i wonder why the tracker doesnt work for me

5/5/2008 11:29:47 AM

tracker doesnt work for me either.

this has the feeling of a huge cluster.

5/5/2008 11:30:19 AM

MINE CAME TODAY!!!


got on to check my balance and set up some bill payments and saw it on my direct deposit pending list.

and i wasn't supposed to have it till after the 9th.

FUCK YES! Now what do i want to get with it?





yikes, just remembered i had a pending credit card payment from some vacation spending that goes out tomorrow. AND my car insurance payment is dues wednesday. I have money allotted but it still technically spends my stimulus check

^i've heard a few people tell me the same thing, it makes me think the tracker thing is kinda BS. my friend got his friday and his last 2 digits are 74.

mine was schedule sometime this week and im not even on the tracker yet.. wonder how they decide when they are sending them out. kinda weird.

5/5/2008 11:33:31 AM

mine didn't work when i screwed up the exemptions number....but then i got it. who knows if it'll actually come when it says that it would.

5/5/2008 11:34:24 AM

^yeah i tried a few diff. exemption numbers just to be safe, and it wasn't showing up. who knows. ugh

5/5/2008 11:36:11 AM

w00t got mine today

5/5/2008 11:40:36 AM

^to the ppl who got theirs today, whats the last 2 digits of ur SSN?

5/5/2008 11:42:49 AM

21

5/5/2008 11:45:28 AM

^well its in the 21-79 range. so you're in the same range as me, maybe thats why u got ur's today. since you're one of the first on the list, hopefully they just do more each day and ill have mine by the may 9th deadline since im 56.

5/5/2008 11:50:32 AM

hmm i wonder if I refile as not a dependent if I'll get a check....

5/5/2008 12:16:29 PM

is this supposed to come as a check or will it be direct deposited if you had your refund direct deposited?

5/5/2008 12:38:55 PM

mine wasn't in the mail and hasn't hit my account yet

5/5/2008 12:40:16 PM

still nothing.

5/6/2008 8:51:34 AM

got mine!

5/6/2008 8:52:52 AM

nothing yet for me, and its not in the system yet either.

5/6/2008 8:53:17 AM

So I sent LGFCU a message on the site asking if I had any pending deposits and they said I have $300 coming from the government tonight!!

Bastards should have given me $600!!! Boooo, but YAY

5/6/2008 8:53:34 AM

woke up to mine being in my bank account this morning

5/6/2008 11:25:27 AM

congrats to those who got them. still waitingggggggggggggggggg.. better be by friday.

5/6/2008 11:42:01 AM

come on check, I got crack to buy!

5/6/2008 11:48:13 AM

I could really use this money to pay off my credit cards

does that stimulate the economy any?

5/6/2008 12:13:27 PM

last two digits are 10 and I've gotten nothing.

5/6/2008 12:20:03 PM

nada

"In general, the payment schedule only applies if your return was received and the IRS finished processing your return before April 15. If you filed your return on time, but close to the April 15 deadline, the IRS may not have finished processing it before April 15."

haha, wat?

5/7/2008 10:01:12 AM

^don't understand what was hard to comprehend about that statement...

5/7/2008 10:25:48 AM

why would you congratulate someone for that??

what youre essentially saying is: "congratulations on doing your taxes!!!!!!"

congratulations is an inappropriate sentiment for the event/action

5/7/2008 10:27:15 AM

lol i suppose, if you say so. haha

5/7/2008 10:29:09 AM

I did my taxes and got no monies

5/7/2008 10:29:26 AM

i dont know what i want to do with mine. For some reason i can't push myself over the edge of getting a ps3/xbox.

5/7/2008 10:30:26 AM

^they are already behind schedule already, it might be awhile. i don't really need the money so i guess i shouldn't bitch about not getting it on time, but it'd be nice to have.

5/7/2008 10:31:36 AM

Actually I'm not eligible for a check

5/7/2008 10:32:27 AM

^lol, well that makes sense then.

5/7/2008 10:40:54 AM

got mine

5/8/2008 8:50:23 AM

I want people to post when they receive a paper check. This electronic stuff is for the birds*.









*-only b/c i'm bitter and can't get it direct deposit

5/8/2008 9:01:12 AM

still nothing. says it should be here by may 9th at the latest, but i guess that really means ill see it sometime next week at the earliest....

5/8/2008 9:04:13 AM

I don't know why I only got $300

boooooo

5/8/2008 9:06:45 AM

^i think you have to make a certain amount to qualify for the full 600. im not exactly sure what the number is though. i'd have to look it up on the irs website

5/8/2008 9:18:38 AM

WHERE THE FUCK IS MINE?!

i was supposed to have gotten it may 2nd (the last 2 of my ssn are b/w 00-20) but still nothing. Fumbler got his a couple days ago and he's not supposed to get it until may 9th. i know they have the right bank acct (as far as direct deposit) b/c they put my refund there.

i'm pissed.

5/8/2008 9:18:46 AM

I havent got mine yet...but once I do I think buying a PS3 is in order

5/8/2008 9:26:42 AM

ok well i tried to look up how much i'd get, but i guess i'm not smart enough to figure it out. they have a payment calculator thing, so if you hav a copy of ur taxes or your w2 you could fill that out and it would tell you

5/8/2008 9:34:29 AM

SS# is 07 and still haven 't gotten mine. The IRS site says I should have it by the 16th, but I really don't see why
