Got my tax stimulus money

[mysschevous]

I found out today that we will be getting a check instead, due to the fact that we also filed a Sch. C. So we have to wait until July.

I filed with a Schedule C and my direct deposit is scheduled for Friday.

[Ralph]

Come on..... FRIDAY! haha. 4/9/08 is my Stimulation date.

[dapo]

Come on..... FRIDAY! haha. 4/9/08 is my Stimulation date.

 

u mean 5/9/08

[lee57]

Mine is 5/9/08 also

[shake things up]

BUMMER!

 

I just talked to an IRS guy (very nice BTW) who looked up everything and said I'll get a paper check July 11. I asked if that was because I filed a schedule C. He said yes probably...but who knows...he said I could still end up with a DD next week. He can't really say for sure.

 

Has anyone out there who filed a schedule C received a DD yet? Just curious

[Kimickey]

I've decided that one of these days I will check my second checking account and will get suprised I refuse to check anylonger, I feel like I applied for new credit and am now waiting for a credit decision

[NeverQuietHere]

Just talked to the IRS again cuz I keep getting that error message. She said our refund will be mailed Friday and we should prob get the Rebate DD on friday may 9th. (hubby's last are 98). She said at the latest it would be may 16th, but she said according to their info, it will be this friday.

 

WOO HOO. I won't hold my breath.

 

 

93 and I keep getting:

 

We are sorry. Specific information about your Stimulus payment is not available.

 

 

I know angel, mine says the same thing. I mentioned that to her about how the website is giving these stupid error messages but she told me what she saw in her computer so....maybe you will get yours friday too.

From what I'm hearing if they had their tax return fees deducted from their refund the stimulus will not be via DD but come via papercheck instead. In my case I paid for my fees with my own monies but had to do an amended return through turbotax and I'm being issued a papercheck on the 16th instead of a DD on the 9th. I guess they went by my second return and not the first.

 

I know someone who filed by TurboTax and they did DD. They should have been transmitted by Friday of last week b/c their number falls into the first batch.

 

Are there any known delays with people who have used TurboTax to file in getting their rebate check? The IRS site says they don't have any info on their payment either. IRS said it could be b/c the payment has not been scheduled yet.

 

Anyone know of delays with TurboTax users?

That is the same thing IRS told me except they would not be processing a check until July 4th for me my last two are 87 the same for my son his last 2 are 27 and his will be cut in June. I thought they were moving the process ahead these are the exact same dates before they moved the payment schedule ahead.

That gives me hope. I tried to call the number, but it was after 5 and all I got was an automated system...Said something about not finding anything for me and if I did qualify and was getting a check they would mail it out Jul 11...But I shouldn't be getting a check. No Schedule C. DD'ed my refund. I just want my measly $900

The automated thing said the same thing for me as well, but the actual people said differently so...I would call.

The IRS is using a batch system to process the rebates. The Agent stated the reason why I can't look up our info online is because they have not even started processing #74-99, which they expect to start on Friday.

 

For those of us who filed a Sch. C, there is a possibility that we could get our rebates early via DD.

 

If you used any type of tax prep software(TurboTax, TaxAct, ect) and had your fees deducted from your refund, you should be getting a paper check. That is up to the discretion of the IRS.

 

I've not had the greatest luck talking to these agents. They seem to contradict themselves often in the same sentence.

Your total Stimulus payment was calculated as $600.00 and consists of the following:

 

Basic Amount: $600.00.

Qualifying Child Amount: $0.00 (Based on 0 qualifying children).

Your payment of $600.00 is scheduled to be deposited to your bank on May 12, 2008. If you do not receive the credit by May 17, 2008, please contact us again. We are unable to take any action until then.

So looks like Monday should be deposited .

[shake things up]

I'm still dying to know if anyone with a Schedule C has received a DD.

[Durnit]

I filed with a Schedule C and I'm due for a paper check 5/16. I get paper because i also filed injured spouse. A friend filed Schedule C and is due for DD 5/9. I son't think Schedule C's have anything to do with it.

[shake things up]

That's good news. Thanks for the info.

[ShadyCredit]

The wife got hers this morning, DD into the account.

 

Filed with TurboTax, DD, paid the fee up front, last 2 SS# is in low 30's.

[Lisa98]

98 and I'm still getting a "we're sorry" message. But it seems YMMV, with the online status thing.

[bravesfan]

My mom called the IRS and they are getting a paper check b/c they used TurboTax and the rep said they would have to deposit theres to TurboTax, so they are sending a paper check. I think it is b/c he paid his fees out of his refund instead of paying his fees separately. They are only getting half of what they expected.

[resqume1]

I filed schedule c using turbotax, paid fees up front using my debit card. Last 2 of social are 40. Scheduled for dd tomorrow 05/09. Although we are only getting a fraction of what we should be. DH was in an accident last year and unable to work for 6 months plus all the medical write offs we had due to that, so we will have to wait until next year to get the remainder. Should be a good refund next year though!

[Arwencita]

According to the IRS website I should be getting mine tomorrow. I will let you know - 72

[ufo1990]

i got mine, it's post dated for 05-09-08

[dubblist]

Last two are 38 and I still get the lame msg that they have no info. Hopefully I wake up to a surprise tomorrow

"Your payment of $1,200.00 is scheduled to be issued on May 16, 2008. If you do not receive your check by June 13, 2008, please contact us again. We are unable to take any action until then."

 

 

So maybe it'll be a little earlier.
