my last 2 are 24 ...this is the first time the site has not gave me an error

[Durnit]

Anyone with #'s in the 80's - 90's and getting a check have any updates today?

 

Lisa my last 2 are 52. Was due to be mailed 5/16 got THEM today. That's right 2 checks for $750 a piece. I was due $1500, so it equalled up to the right amount but I don't know why I got 2

[IheartLoopHoles]

I am 04 and this is the first time I have not gotten the error message.

 

Says my payment will be "issued" on May 30th.

 

I am assuming when they use the term "issued" that it means DD? Seems others who have pasted the verbage from the IRS website say that payment will be "mailed", which = paper check.

 

Is this a correct assumption?

[bosoxfan]

I just got my letter about the DD that was supposed to happen on the 16th. It didn't.

 

I only get $600 though, $300 for me and $300 for dear daughter.

mine says issued as well but also says if i dont receive the check by june 20 to call them. so who knows what that mean or if there is even a difference.

I checked under my ssn and my wife's, error message on both. my last two are 54, wife is in the 90's. Our daughter got hers today and she filed a month after we did. I paid upfront for filing, DD and we owed nothing. Hurry up wait I guess.

 

We were supposed to get it by May 9th according to the schedule, but I wonder if we are just getting a check and what spurred that on.

still error message for myself 35.

 

But i will note that in Northern IL i delivered a ton of the checks today, USPS. The most 1 day run yet.

 

So i think that this was the first mas mailing of the paper checks. Been delivering the DD notices for weeks.

SHOW ME THE MONEY!! WHAHOO!!

[ceebee]

We're 73 & 74, filed in JANUARY with the stupid TurboTax fee-deducted-from-refund option, no letter except the initial one they sent back in April, and still get the error message. Guess our check will be true to the June 27th schedule.

[Lisa98]

A big waaahooo to those who finally have some sort of inkling as to when their $$$ is coming. Hopefully the rest of us will know soon.

 

From the dates I have, it still seems as if they are just randomly processing and sending checks.

[blueuab]

My last two are 59 and still no money or letters.

[vitman123]

Got are Stimulus Check Monday . last two 36

[Lisa98]

No update for us..98.

Man Im really confused now. As I mentioned in an early post I got a check from the government for $200 2 weeks ago. So I assumed they took out what they needed to take out and sent the remainder. Then today I went onto the IRS website to see if they finally updated their records to show what my original amount was so I can better understand where the money went and this is what I got:

 

Your total Stimulus payment was calculated as $2,100.00 and consists of the following:

 

Basic Amount: $1,200.00.

Qualifying Child Amount: $900.00

Your payment of $1,062.75 is scheduled to be issued on May 30, 2008. If you do not receive your check by June 27, 2008, please contact us again. We are unable to take any action until then.

 

Man Im so confused! And I still havent received a letter stating where the money was applied to

[Chad3304]

Yay, I gotta letter in the mail yesterday saying to expect my check BY 5/23/08 so hopefully I will get it today or do they only come on fri's, sats' and mondays?

[demejoe]

There appears to be no structure to how the irs is handling this (surprise) I used Turbo Tax and had the fee deducted from my check. Whats weird is that I am seeing people in the midde ranges like 50-60 getting their checks when the schedule states something else. Oh well, I figure I will see mine at the end of next month, if it comes sooner great if not oh well.

[Lisa98]

I haven't gotten a letter yet either. I know others who have though. Today is only Tuesday though, so if a letter were mailed on Friday, I might not see it until tomorrow or thursday.

[blueuab]

Yea,my boss got his check mailed to him last Monday and he filed through H and R Block his last two digits were lower than mine. The site says I should be receiving it by June 20th. I will wait till then and see what happens.

[Lisa98]

Any Hump Day updates? Either that you know your check is coming or you already got it in the mail.

 

Nothing yet for me, that's what we get for being on the tail end. They've probably logged all my calls where I complained and decided they'd process our check last. LOL

[cjterry10]

Well, mine was supposed to be mailed 5/16 and nothing yet. I'm 03 so hopefully in the next couple of days I'll receive it. It just seems so crazy how the irs is handling this.

[Lisa98]

Anyone get anything good in the mail today?

 

I really should stop calling the IRS, I think I like "testing" them. I've never gotten the same answer twice. LMAO

[da47chief]

no letters, no checks, yet. Bueller?... bueller?

[Lisa98]

no letters, no checks, yet. Bueller?... bueller?

 

Ditto! There is definately no rhyme or reason to how they are distibuting these checks. There's a boat load of info RE:Stimulus checks, that just contradicts one another. The IRS is too busy to take calls from unhappy taxpayers. And what's worse is I don't think they know what's going on either.

Well I have finally figured out why I am not receiving my rebate as a DD. H&R Block's "people" did our return and they automatically assumed that we wanted our fees deducted from our refund. I had already paid the fees but they submitted our return and had the fees deducted. My wife then caught the mistake and we ended up having to get a refund of our fees from H&R Block.

 

So the IRS is sending us a paper check because they did not know we paid upfront.

 

"Man am I glad I got people"
