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?

So if I did Turbo Tax and refund was DD'd back in February, but did an amended to get the rest of my refund due to the energy credit not being available at the time I filed, then i'm paper check too?

According to the IRS website mine was supposed to be DD on May 6th (today) and so far nothing is there. I have no idea what is going on

May 6 2008, 12:41 PM
More than likely, yes. If you get DD then they are picking and choosing who gets paper and who gets DD. The IRS has my DD info. from the first return, as a matter of fact I always used DD since it's inception and with the same banking information, but, I guess since I did an amended return this season, which the difference was sent via papercheck, they went by that instead of the DD info. they have in their system, or not now have since I filed a 1040X

Q. I chose to have my tax refund deposited onto a "stored value card" or debit card through the professional tax preparer I used. Will my stimulus payment be directly deposited onto that same stored value card or debit card account?
A. Yes, unless you requested a refund anticipation loan (RAL) through your tax professional, or the stored value card or debit card account has been closed, in which case you will receive your economic stimulus payment by paper check. [Updated 4/30/08]

I'm supposed to be in the 5/9 group, but still no info available yet.
I owed (under $100) and filed online and had them suck the $$ out of my acct, so they have my banking info.
I think they just want to punish me for not giving them an interest free loan all year.

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

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.

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.

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.

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!
