Finally.
The IRS has a feature available on its web site where you can check the status of your rebate. Visit “Where’s My Stimulus Payment?” and have on hand your legal name, filing status, Social Security number and number of exemptions shown on your 2007 return. You must have filed your tax return at least six weeks prior in order to get an update.
If your information is not available (mine wasn’t), you’ll receive a message telling you to check the Payment Schedule.
Hopefully, this will put some of your questions to rest. I’d love to hear feedback from those of you who have used the site!
No information for me either; I’m in the May 9th group… I wonder if they’re turning on this information early enough to be helpful, or if it’s only for “my rebate should be here by now” questions…
Didn’t work for me either. I tried my SS# and Jungle’s.
I just tried checking mine and they seemed to think I was making a mistake in entering my information. Perhaps it’s because they don’t have my updated filing status on record yet. Although when I tried again with “single” it still didn’t seem to know who I am.
I can’t wait for that rebate.
A whole tank of gas paid for!
I tried it for me and my wife. It could not tell us about either of our rebates.
The site worked for me. I should be receiving my money tomorrow. Woohoo!
Didn’t work for me either. The “you may have made a mistake” page seems to come back way too fast. Almost like it isn’t checking anything.
can the rebate be direct deposited into my h&r block emerald card?
It worked for me and also answered my question
I won’t be getting mine yet they are mailing it. my original return was direct deposited and I did an amended for a mistake and got a check. So now my stimulus is going to be mailed how stupid.
If I would of known that was going to affect my stimulus I would of waited until after I got my stimulus to file the ameneded.
Kesia, from what I have read, if anybody had their tax returns posted to any kind of ‘card’ issued by a tax preparer, those rebates would be by check, not direct deposit.
didnt work for me and i filled feb 5th and last two of ssn is 09
I just tried a few minutes ago and the site didn’t work for me either.
We are in the second group and I can’t find out a darn thing ..on the irs website or by calling the rebate hotline at 1-866-234-2942. We filed the end of Jan and had our refund direct deposted. I have read anywhere from May 5 until allow a few days after the 9th????????????????Confused
Didnt work for me either, socail ends in 01.. Did anyone else ending in 01 not get it today?
Mine ends in 14 and I still haven’t rec’d anything, however 2 friends of mine, one 00 and the other 03 both rec’d theirs between today and yesterday…go figure
My husband’s social ends in 00 and we didn’t recieve ours today like we were supposed to. Anyone know who to contact? The site didn’t work for us either.
Did not work for me either, social ends in 55!!!!!
Rats just expected the government to have their crap in order this time!!!!
Will not work for me either, my friends social ends in 20 hasn’t been deposited yet.
Didn’t work for me either…I’m a ..17 (was supposed to be today) but the site simply states..”Sorry, we can’t give you any info at this time”
Lord this is just frustrating. I don’t mean to be greedy but we could use some gas and groceries! I can’t understand how it the first story I heard they would be one week early….which would have made ours today. Then I heard 4 days early…which would make it Monday. When irs tells you to see the schedule, cause they give me the mistake deal, then no info, the schedule still has me at the 9th….which is where it was all along…….poop!!!!!
The website didn’t work for me either…apparently there’s a mistake and it pulled this BS when I did it for my state tax return. Our social is ending in 01 and our friends got theirs today and they end in 10….any clue?
Didn’t work for me either. SSn ends in 19. Got the same “may have made a mistake” message and “No information”.
my husbands is 29 and we have no clue. these seem to be just lies again!
Site shows I made a mistake – my social ends in 08 and I filed 1/27. My coworker whos social ends in 12 got his on Apr 30
Gathered an 800 number which only acts as the same as the website. You enter your social, filing status and exemptions for it to tell you NOTHING!!! Try it out and see if it works for you…of course, I can’t track ANYBODY down to ask myself. 866-234-2942…it’s all AUTOMATED which drives me nuts!!
I tried that rebate number and it didn’t work for me. Thats crazy if we owed them money we wouldv’e had to pay them right away. but we have to wait for our payment.
I work for a large bank and know that within our financial institution deposits made today will not reflect in customers accounts until tonight at midnight. So some of you should see your rebate tomorrow. Good luck!
of course it didn’t work for me either, and I was due today as well.
The Govt can’t even deliver on this, please raise your hand if you still want them running your health care system!
people are you all that hard up to get a few $$$
you know theres always welfare.
I got the message “you may have made a mistake” even though I entered the correct information (100 times). Even tried it with mydaughter’s information. I agree that this is another great government screw-up.
It didn’t work for me either, I know someone with the ss ending in 34 and got theirs on 25th. Sucks!
I filed mine in Feb. & the Soc. ends in 17, no deposit…Got the same you may have made a mistake message, and even this morning there is still no deposit so its not the bank holding it…
There are apparently a lot of people whom did not get their check on time. I happen to be one of them. I have called the IRS and also spoke to my bank. What i got from the IRS is a number to call to see if your check is going to be offset. Basically what that means is if you have unpaid student loans, balances owed to the IRS and a few other types of debts, your check will go towards that balance. If you call the IRS you can also get this number. Also, if you go to irs.gov, you will eventually find a link to track your stimulus check. My social ends in 05 and i filed mine through turbotaxonline.com very early this year. According to the schedule, I should have gotten mine yesterday. I have yet to see this deposit. Using the tracker, I found mine is actually set to be deposited on May 9th. So try using the tracker from the IRS website, and call them for the offset number.
Also, for you people who keep nagging on people that are “hard up for the cash”, the economy is horrible. Gas prices are skyrocketing along with groceries and a lot of people are already trying to recover from lay-offs and bills gone wild. Does not mean they need welfare. They just could really use the money the government is promising. Obviously you make enough money to where you don’t need to worry about it. How about you hand your check to someone else since you obviously don’t care about it? If not, then don’t complain about people that are upset that they don’t have money that they are promised when they are supposed to get it.
STEVE…..we are all not as rich as you are so yeah we are hard up for the money…oh and welfare doesn’t give enough to servive so thats a loss.
Just because a person is not worried about getting a check does not mean he’s rich. By the way Keisa if you are going to survive in this world you should learn how to spell it.
Still same ole sh#@…..no info on website or rebate hotline, same ole “may have made a mistake”. I would Love some day to see how the “other half lives” and not need any “extra” money. I see nothing wrong with anticipating money being sent to us.
My aunt told me to look on AARP Website and it gave the 5th for the day the second batch to be deposited, yet the irs still lists it to be May 9th, which was when it was to be before “the big early speech” If you have to wait until it is time it is there for it to give us any info, why the heck did they bother to provide a place to check it?????????????????
I think Steve is right. This is just a bonus check. You are lucky to get it. As for Jeremiah suck it up I’m sure you will find a job soon.
Steve… the only way to take the focus off of your mistakes is to point out someone elses. Always remember that there are people out there, whos families are dependant on anything the government has to offer. Learn to be alittle bit more considerate and less judgemental. You could understand people alot better and not be so ignorant and accuse people of being, as you put it”hard up”.
Hey, I finally got something different than a error message. It still does’nt tell me sh*t. My S.S. end’s in 19. supposed to get it last week. >
We are sorry. Specific information about your Stimulus payment is not available.
Possible reasons include:
* Your payment may still be coming, but has not yet been scheduled. Information will be available here as payments are issued based on the last two digits of the primary SSN shown on your 2007 tax return. Specific information about your Stimulus Payment will not be available until about one week before your payment is scheduled to be issued. See the complete Payment Schedule below for more information.
* You did not file a tax return for 2007 or your return is still being processed. Additional information about filing requirements is available.
* The information entered did not match our records. Be sure to check the information you entered. You may Re-Enter your information as necessary.
Remember, to qualify for the Stimulus Payment, you must meet the eligibility requirements. Please allow 6 weeks after filing your tax return before checking on the status of your Stimulus Payment.
maddognv That message is what I got for the first time beginning today. Until then I had gotten “may have made a mistake” so bottom line I still don’t know s#%t. We are in the second batch….and our original date was the 9th so why the H wouldn’t it be dd on the 5th…tomorrow if they are 4 days early. Like anything else with the gov……..f up.
Does anyone have any info about electronic filing? I filed online using H&R block the beginning of Feburary and had my refund directly deposited but I have read if you use an online agent you will receive you rebate via paper check . I was just wondering if anybody that commented on this site and didnt get their rebate yet electronically filed and that could be the problem ???? Any info would help
Donna,
If you filed using H&R Block you will get your check direct deposited as long as you paid your fees upfront using a debit or credit card. If you had your fees taken out of your refund, you will be getting a paper check regardless if you had direct deposit or not. Hope this helps !
JOAnn ty for the info , and I did pay my fees with a debit card so I will be getting my rebate direct deposited , thats good to know because I cant find any info on irs website about my rebate.
This blows. I’m in the second group. I did my return through Turbo Tax but got to do it free through State Farm Insurance, so my tax return was DD from the US Treasury on 2/14/08. My last two SS numbers are 32, but nothing yet and nothing at the IRS site.
I’ll just write it off to typical bureaucratic nonsense on the part of the feds, but it’s still frustrating.
I checked my on the IRS website. Our ss # ends in 65. I thought they were going to send our rebeates 4 days early. Still no info. What shpuld we do. Call the Irs and tell them. Then we will all be on hold forever. This is so crazy!!!!!
And I am guessing the ‘Where’s My Stimulus Payment’ tool is banging off some database that gets updated from time to time en masse because I just entered in a bogus SS number and some other info and immediately got the “We are sorry. Specific information about your Stimulus payment is not available.”
Jay must be bored..ha!
We are in the second batch.
Last week the first message was; “may have made a mistake”
The end of the week it changed to ” sorry, no specific info”
This am at 8:00 it gave us the amount and it is scheduled to go in our account May 9th. This is NO EARLIER THAN THE ORIGINAL SCHEDULE BEFORE GOOD OLE GEORGE GAVE US ALL THE EARLY SPEECH. MAY 5TH IS NOT THE CORRECT INFO SO DON’T GET YOUR HOPES UP BASED ON WHAT MANY WEBSITES HAVE POSTED CAUSE IT “AIN’T NECESSARILY SO” grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!
I’ve been getting that error message for the past week. I just checked it again today and they finally had my info and said it would be DD on may 9th. My fiance is also scheduled to get hers on the 9th but she is still getting that error message on the irs website. So much for getting it early
I entered my info on wheres my rebeate, it gave me a error code. So I called on phone for 20 minutes. THe rep from the IRS said I was processed and should have my rebeate my 9th as well. She had not heard of the new schedule that was on the news. So as far she knew nobody would get there until the date the iRs has posted. Go firgue!
STEVE, you are a douche.
Amanda, that’s both comical and sad considering the announcement about the accelerated payments was on the IRS web site:
http://www.irs.gov/newsroom/article/0,,id=181972,00.html
Hey, keep it nice! No name calling! My mother could be reading.
http://www.taxgirl.com/official-comment-policy/
Ok, get this! I tried under my SS# and get squat. I try under my wife’s and it worked! Said it would be DD on May 9th.
So those of you who are married, try and query it with your spouse’s SS number.
I checked the government website…my rebate was SUPPOSED to be directly deposited by the 2nd (my last digits are 05). No money. The irs website worked, but said I was due to be sent out on the 8th! wtf george…get your shit together…
It just pi$$%$ me off that we were told this early $h*@ and got our hopes up and its all blow. MY schedule was the 9th prior to the big early speech and is still the 9th………go figure. Guess just like anything else you depend on that the gov says it will be doing…..HA!
Ok, the site worked for me. I wish it hadn’t though. It is saying that our rebate was reduced because of our qualifying income on our return. So, instead of the promised $1200 for married, we are only getting $600!!! Plus for the 3 kids, but come on!!!!! It is the exact same that my brother just rec’d for him, his wife and one kid! And not only that, original deposit…5/9. Now that is supposed to be a week earlier…5/9!!!!!!! Go figure! I am not a happy camper. Nor will my dh be when he gets home from work. This sucks!
I filed my taxes through turbo tax and had the fees taken out of my refund, I also had the refund D.D into my account. Is it true that because the fee’s were taken out of my refund that I will be getting a paper check instead of having the rebate d.d?
April that is correct. When you chose to have the fees taken out of your refund, a temporary account was set up with Santa Barbara Bank & Trust. The money from the Treasury was deposited there. SBB&T then deposited the money in your bank account. Because the IRS didn’t actually get your banking information, they’ll have to send a manual check.
I checked the website. It did not work under my husband it did under mine. THe site was busy. Keep trying! LOts of luck. P.S.it was reduce a small amount because of my tax liabilty. Oh well. Happy to get one at all!!!
So what if you had to pay a fine out of your refund and got your refund DD will you still get it DD or MO
M I dont know anything about that
But I did Tubro Tax for Free what about me
Here’s some answer’s if you had your tax prep fee’s taken out of your refund.The check’s in the mail. Maybe.
http://www.wkowtv.com/News/index.php?ID
My husband and I filed using Turbo Tax with direct deposit and were told by the IRS we would be getting a paper check in the mail.
Another bit of info..the IRS also told my husband that they have already started mailing out the checks and we could see ours in 7-10 days. Last two digits of ss are 15.
With regard to TurboTax, it does not matter if the return was issued via direct deposit.
If you used TurboTax and either paid the fees up front with a debit or credit card or did it for free with DD, you’ll get your stimulus check via DD.
If you had the fees taken out of your refund, then even with DD you are going to get a check.
Jamie-
do you by chance know the mailing schedule for turbo tax users that have a ssn ending in 10
For those of you who are frustrated by the “Check the status of your rebate” site you should take a few things into consideration…
1) The IRS website states that it will report the status of your rebate only a week before it’s scheduled for deposit/mailing. So if you’re scheduled to receive your rebate several weeks from now, you won’t be able to check the status for several weeks.
2) If you filed near April 15th, the IRS may have not finished processing your taxes until after 15th. The schedule only states that taxes “processed” before the 15th will receive their rebates by the scheduled dates. If you filed your taxes only a few days or weeks before the 15th, it’s more likely you’ll have to wait a minimum 6 weeks to receive your rebate.
I too am anxious to receive my payment, and I found this site pretty helpful: http://www.irs.gov/newsroom/article/0,,id=181991,00.html
I went to the “where’s my stimulus payment” on the irs website on Monday, and after I put in the information(last two numbers 21) it gave me the amount and a deposit date of May 9. I was looking around on some message boards a little while ago, and a couple of people with the last two numbers of 50 actually got their check deposited already on Tuesday. Has anyone gotten their checks already if your scheduled date is 5-9-2008?
Our number is same as yours JoAnn. We were given the 9th also as day to be dd. As it is not there today, the only hope I have of “early” is every year we receive a refund and it is always scheduled to be deposited on a Friday, but it always shows up the day before on a Thursday. Don’t know if it will be the same deal or not but that’s the only hope I have of so called “early”. The 9th was our “original” date for dd back when we first received a letter concerning the stimulus so nothing changed for us.
Debi,
Nothing for me today, how about you ? Guess it will be (Lord willing) Friday 5-9. Hoping for at least a day early but…..(sigh)
So what if you owe your state department of revenue money? I had a debt to the state of MN for past-due tuition, it was $1200 and I’ve been paying $60/month on it religiously through a payment plan, and now have it down to just over $600.00 Does anyone know if they will be taking that kind of debt out of our economic stimulus checks?
Well, I filed an injured spouse claim after my tax return was filed this year and they delayed and delayed my tax REFUND. Finally, they sent us a letter saying the whole amount was sent to my husbands back child support. Then I called and the IRS agent said that she couldn’t even find the injured spouse claim, which I know they received b/c I had called in March and another agent said an Injured spouse agent had been assigned to my case. Now, it had to be referred and another 30 days will pass. I just know they will take our whole rebate even though I filed the injured spouse claim like I was supposed to to get my share of the refund and rebate. I can’t believe they ever can do something right.
its all part of the master plan people…NWO.
-we start an occupation for oil and land and hide the truth-
-cost of living doubles at a rate never seen before-
-we give you a “tax stimuli” package to offset the high cost of living-
-we put up a false scripted page that gives no info-
-we create panic and anxiety so you will spend faster upon receipt-
-we approve billions for ‘war’ efforts yet our education system, our healthcare system and our people continues to suffer from lack of funding-
-a nation still asleep-
-a world in stagnation-
enjoy your stimuli
JoAnn …..ours showed up in our bank account Thursday am. I was certainly hoping so, but I am already worrying the shape everyone will be in come tax time. I doubt the economy will be anything but worse. I had read on some websites that this rebate will not affect our 2008 refund. I thought this was strange since irs said when you receive your stimulus letter telling you it had been sent to keep the letter for 2008 tax filing. I now read on H&R Block website this rebate will certainly be deducted from your 2008 refund amount. The only way you will be better off is if your rebate is somehow more than your refund you would have been entitled to. You will not be required to pay the difference in the amount. So we won’t be looking forward to that hefty refund come tax time. I think everyone will be even worse off then than now. Good luck on your rebate coming Friday JoAnn!!
Debi,
Thanks for getting back to me. Good to hear that you already got yours ! I was hoping today but I’ll be checking after midnight and see if it is in our account. I agree with you , Debi, about the economy. Things just keep getting worse ! These checks will be a help for everyone, but after they are spent, nothing really will have changed. Still going to have debt, etc… Well, it’s really nice chatting with you ! I will let you know if we get our refund in the morning. Have a nice night !
I too am in the sencond round of payments 21-75 I have been checking the IRS site all this week and it is still saying my information is not available. I don’t feel so alone when I’m hearing that others are having this same problem. That last two digits of your SS# is a crock of s@&t.
there are people in the first group still looking for their payments. Those in the second group don’t get you hopes up, to only be disappointed.
we recevied our rebeate this morning ss# ends in 65.
Anyone know why if we filed through H & R Block and had our fees taken out of our refund, why we get a paper check even though we direct deposited our refund? It took me 2 weeks to figure this one out. According to the first irs site(before they added stuff) we were to recieve ours in direct deposit. Now they are saying a paper check. What gives?….
Megan-
The same thing happened to me except I went through turbotax. It sucks cause my ss end in 10 and now I have to wait forever in a day to get my refund. I was really looking forward to getting that money last week to. But from what I’ve heard its because a third party deposites your check into your account (its kinda like a loan) so the IRS doesnt have your bank info. But again, thats just what I’ve heard so I dont know if its true or not. All I know is a check would sure be nice right about now
It just keeps getting weirder fo us. My numb ends in 45 and wife’s is 62. I checked my ssn a week ago and get the message nothing has been processed. We check the wife’s a day later and we were supposed to receive on the 9th. Well today is the 9th and nothing in the bank. Also the IRS dropped one of my children as a qualifying child so either my 4 year old or my 7 year old didn’t get the $300 added to our stim package since they said we only own 1 qualifying child LOL. Just letting you folks know it does get weirder and don’t expect ot get it even on the date you were originally supposed to get it.
Yea, we sure could use it like TODAY! LOL! Our gas prices here are $3.87 gal….and we are feeling it!!!! Ours ends in 01, so we were so sure it would be there last week!!!
Maybe they shouldn’t have told us we were to get this check! I’m thinking a lot of people have questions that are going unanswered! And WHY put up a “Where’s my rebate” thing, when it only has one answer?? Just surprise me next time!!!
exactly! maybe we shouldnt have gotten our hopes up but with the gas prices and prices in general sky rocketing its a little hard not to. Just another let down to add to the books I guess
I was able to see my rebate info. on the IRS website today and we are getting a paper check. According to the site it will be sent to us on May 15 and our ss# 15.
I just checked mine and once again….NOTHING!!! I dont get it…whats the deal
If I were you I would call them (we did) the number is 1-800-829-1040. Press 2 and then 3. You will hear music and eventually an IRS rep. will pick up. You may be on hold for awhile though.
ok I’ll try it. I’ll let you know what they say. thanks
Ok so I called and the lady (very nice) said that I will be getting a check in the mail because I used turbo tax and because of that they go by turbo taxes number instead of my last two digits. She said that the check will be in the mail no later than the 23rd of May.
OOOOOK….The guy we spoke to told us our check would be in the mail May 16. according to our ss#. When I checked the site it told me May 15 (pretty close to what the rep. said). Have not heard anything about a Turbo Tax number. Anyone heard of this?
I was scheduled to get mine today and nothing. 2 of my coworkers and I used taxact online/direct deposit and they both rec’d theirs today but nothing for me!
I CALLED THE HELP DESK AT THE IRS. THEY SAID THAT THE ” WHERE’S MY STIMULUS CHECK” LINK ON THEIR WEBSITE WAS NOT WORKING. THAT IS THE REASON IT WONT GIVE A PROPER RESPONSE WHEN YOU TYPE IN THE CORRECT INFO. ITS NOT BECAUSE SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH YOUR REBATE COMING. IM JUST GUESSING BUT BY THE INFO I GET FROM FRIENDS I THINK THEY ARE AROUND THE SOCIAL NUMBERS SOMEWHERE IN THE HIGH 40’S EARLY 50’S. THATS JUST WHAT I THINK BY MY RESEARCH BUT NOTHING TO CONFIRM IT AS FACT.
Wow. How did you guys get a live person? The recording gave me the same nonsense as the website. I am supposed to receive my rebate today but my sister hasn’t received her’s and she had the May 2 date. I have direct deposit and I filed in Feb. so I have no clue what is going on. I blame the Gov. for making such a big deal out of these rebates and then not coming through!
If you want to talk to a rep. Press 2 and then 3. You will hear music and eventually an IRS rep. will pick up. You may be on hold for awhile though. Phone number 1-800-829-1040.
Same for me my ends in 64 nothing yet. Website also saids no info. I guess the irs cant keep up like always.
If you used H&R Block or Turbotax and had your fees deducted from your refund, your stimulus will be mailed. The reason why is because they have to outsource to a 3rd party to have the charges taken out. IE Santa Barbara bank thing with Turbo Tax. All the info i’ve found out says I was first supposed to have mine Deposited on the 2nd…But then changed to the 9th. Now i find out mine will be mailed on the 14th. So the dates are just general info based on the last numbers of your social. Not actual info based on you specifically.
I Was Just wondering if anyone has actually has received a paper check?
So I checked the website and it says that I am supposed to get a check mailed to me for the amount of $910 but I did the little calculation thing on the website and that tells me I should get $1200. I’m confused! I am a single parent of 2 (really 3 but I’m nice and let the ex claim a child) and I sure in the heck dont make a lot of money so I dont understand why my refund would be reduced. I dont owe any back taxes or anything……
This is interesting…we are #90. Checked at 11:10, wasn’t under husband’s. It was under mine. Info was there. We’re getting ours on Friday, 16th – DD. Checked site again at 11:50. “Specific info is now unavailable.” Does their website seem to have problems at times?
We revieved our rebeate dd 0n the 9th we paid bills, bought grocerys. not sure if this will help the encomy. our payment was reduce by 400.00 dollars almost we do not make much either and had have 4 kids
I did my taxes early and had them direct deposited, This was done in jan, After not recieving my direct deposit on the 9th I decided to call them and was told it will be mailed paper check, But they could not give me Any other info, So I go back to the worthless site and get a crappy : we are sorry we have no info message.
My last ss digits is 24 AND THEY STILL HAVE NO INFO?
I will be happy when I actually get any info on anything about my stim check, I won’t hold my breath tho.
today 15th still no rebate suppose to be 09 direct deposjt
You’re gonna love this. I have been using the IRS tool every day for about a week. Plus we are suposed to get a mailing via snail mail before we get the check. Well the IRS says no information available and I never received a notice but I did get the rebate on time. I went to the IRS page after receiving the rebate and it still says no info! Don’t depend on that tool or on a notice. Check with your bank!
Me again, I put in the wrong web site in my last post!! It’s osmadventures.net not .com
My number is 40.. still nothing, but my coworker got hers today and her number is 98.. pissed off i am well we just have to wait!
Something else interesting, I have been using the tool wrong!!!! It says enter total exemptions not dependents. When the page was created I swear it said depedents. You must enter all claimed. I was just putting in 2 for my kids but should have been putting 4 for all of us. When I did 4 it worked. Good luck!
We got a letter from the IRS on the 10th explaning our total of the stimulus payment. It then says “You can expect your payment by 5/16/08.” So much for expecting it! Got nothing else from them.
Well, we recieved our paper check in the mail today. It was for the amount we were given on the calculator as well as the amount they gave us on our mailout. I guess a few days late isn’t all that bad. Hope everyone gets theirs soon! Good luck! Gonna pay some bills now!
I checked the “Where’s my rebate?” thing on the IRS website. We also got a letter in the mail that said it would be deposited on the 16th. Hmmm…now it’s the 19th and nothing. Oh, and my SS# ends in 04. My wife’s in 03.
Last 2 digits of my husband’s social is 34 and we are getting a paper check. when can we expect that?
My wife’s last 2 digits are 24…and they said it would be mailed /received on May 30th
For all of you that have received your check already…..was your info showing up on the “Where’s my rebate?” feature on the IRS website?
yes ours was make sur to enter all info correct expically exemptions correct not your dependents also try both ss numbers it worked under mine instead of my husbands good luck
website of course had no info for me,but the schedule said i was to get mine on may16.still havent.i was reading the times picayune(new orleans,la)news paper and there was a tiny article stating that 15,000 peoples rebate checks were deposited into the wrong peoples accounts.so the people who recieved deposits matching someone elses social security numbers are supposed to call the irs and report it.i presume that may be causing a big hold up.
I was suppose to receive my rebate check direct deposit on the 16th of May. I did not receive it, the last two of my social is 80 and I can’t puull up any info on the website and when I cvall the hotline number is says that the IRS is experiencing too many calls and can not except mine and automatically disconnects me. What do you do next? I suppose just wait.
I was suppose to have my check DD on the 2nd, then I found out that because I went thru turbotax and had my fees taken out of my refund that I will be getting a check instead and it will be mailed out no later than the 23rd. Has anyone gotten their check early that was suppose to receive theirs on the 23rd? BTW my last digits are 10
Yes, last two digits 15. We got ours on Monday May 19, 2008. We as well went through Turbo Tax. and was scheduled to receive ours through the mail on th 23rd.
hmmm. well maybe there is still hope for me then!
jamie, was your info showing up on the “where’s my stimulus” feature on the IRS website?
When I checked the “where’s my stimulus” on May 13th it was showing that our check would be mail May 15th. It did not show anything before the 13th though (I would check it every day). We received it May 19th.
I got a letter about my stimulus payment letting me know that I should receive my check by the 23rd. But it says that I am only getting 910 and I just dont understand why. I have 2 qualifying children and I didnt make much so I dont get why I’m not getting the full 1200. anyone else have this problem?
Yes we did April. Iam married with four children we do not make that much either ours was redeuced by almost 400.00 dollars. With the gas and cost of food we need it.
thats just not right. they need to either up the value of the dollar or reduce the cost of living
My last tw0 digits are 07 i went through turbo tax….i live in GA can anyone tell me when I should expect my MAILED check??also has anyone in GA(AUGUSTA)gotten theres’ by mail?
I know they need to do something to help us! It is bad. people are leaving there homes. I show on news this morning the cost of food has risen 6% since this time last year.
well! Its the 23rd and Memorial Day weekend, sure hope I get that check in the mail today. Bills need to be paid, food needs to be bought and gas needs to be put in the car
good luck April , I know how you feel ho can we boost the encomy if we have to spend our stimulus checks of basic stuff food and gas. It is not fair cost of gas today was 3.99 ! Crazy !
Gas here in Utah hasnt made it that high…YET its like $3.89! I remember when I first started driving gas was only like 97 cents, paying a $1.20 was expensive. Boy what I would give to go back to those days!!
It was only 3.69 on Wednesday but by Friday it was 3.99 we live in indiana I just wonder if it because of the holiday?
Probably. but now with the rate of gas nobody is going to even want to go anywhere this summer for vacations. I could imagine what the price tag would be to fill our boat.
Yeah we are not doing anything this weekend because of gas prices my husband also a part time lawn bussiness so he not making any money all going to gas, food, bills , kids. I hope the goverment does something soon for us.
I’m going to quote my dad “wish in one hand and poop in the other and see which one fills up first”
That pretty much sums that up!! I’ve heard that by next year gas prices are going to be up to $7 a gallon. If thats the case then nobody is going to want to drive at all and all those car dealerships are going to go out of business. This is just NOT good
Gas in Seattle is $4.28. The news interviewed the gas clerk and he said that by the summer gas will be $6/gal. Nobody can get second jobs or even pay raises anymore. Here, everything seems to be at a standstill, just waiting for the next drastic thing to happen.
i was to get my check on friday may23 and nothing yet can anyone tell me why
my mom was to get her check dd on may 9th so can anyone tell me why thjank you
surprise surprise no check!! thats all I’ve got to say about that!!
My last two are 10 and my mothers are 12. We both recieved letters early last week stating we would recieve our checks via snail mail by 5/23. No checks yet. In reading various blogs I have come to the conclusion that no one in the same range (10-19) have recieved thier checks yet. Chances are they just sent them out Friday and they will come this week…I HOPE ATLEAST!!
ok, it FINALLY shows on the website that we are getting our check! It says it is scheduled to be issued on June 6th. I am just glad to finally have some info. Has anyone been getting there’s any sooner?
Hello,
I checked the “Where’s my stimulus payment” website and it said my check is scheduled to be issued on May 23rd. When I called the rebate hotline – it indicated my check will be mailed on May 23rd. I am planning to go home during lunch today to check my mail. My last two digits are 23. Has anyone received their check with a May 23rd issue date?
I went home during lunch and my check was in the mailbox. The check was mailed out Friday, May 23, 2008 (Per the IRS Website) and I received my check today – Tuesday, May 27, 2008. As I stated in my previous post – My last two digits are 23.
Well to follow up on my earlier weirdness post. I called the IRS since it shows that our money was direct deposited. It only showed on my wife’s social. I call the IRS and they said that is incorrect we would be mailed a check since we took our fees out of the return (which we didn’t) so now we are getting a check (I think) by June 16th. Well except for not getting the check I have had about as much weirdness on this than i wnated too. Why is it siuch a mess from the last time they did this. The last time it went like clockwork.
Well, I am about to head home…please keep your fingers crossed for me! The website says that my check was to be “issued” on 5/23 (I’m assuming that’s via snail mail) so…I’ll let you guys know tomorrow!
Well, my last 2 digits are 87 and still haven’t received my rebate. I did mine before april 15th via online, so this sucks. Irs.gov site can’t find my info either…
Yeah um I got that notice in the mail on the 19th saying that I should get the check by the 16th? Yup so then I go to the status checker and that told me that it had been direct deposited on the 16th? Yeah, no, it is not in there. So I will end with saying my last 2 digits are 31. Please soak this in and help!
i was suppose to have my check directly deposted into my account may 9th, i still havent recieved my check yet whats really going on
well guess what it really does work my husband got his check so everyone just be patient
I did my return and my mom’s at the end of March and I mailed them and still nothing. I am just worried that they didn’t get them. For all I know they got lost in the mail. We both chose direct deposit and I check the IRS tool and nothing comes up. Does it even work? I can’t get through to the IRS so what are you supposed to do?
Where is my rebate check? I was suppost to have it by 5-30-2008. I was counting on it for bills. IRS has deadlines, what about are deadlines?
I called the IRS this morning and was told I would receive my money dd this week. Nothing is coming up on the IRS Tool though. I don’t know what to believe. I don’t want to get my hopes up and then it doesn’t show up. My friend and her husband e filed their return on April 15th and already got their money like 3 weeks ago. So it doesn’t look like if you do it late you have to wait.
Where is our check? We filed over 6 weeks ago. The last two SS didgets are 00. So what is the hang up??
I am happy to say i checked the website and I finally got a response My check will mailed out on the 13th of june.To put some minds to rest, I thought I was getting direct deposit but if your tax guy used a third party bank your check will be mailed.
I Finally got the answer i have been looking for my check will be mailed on the 13th of june my number is 40! Good Luck
well guess what everyone the irs is right on point my last number is 44 and they are mailing mine out on june 13th just wait and see good luck
My last two digits are 07 and mine should have been mailed out by May 16.. Still havent recieved it and the website does not recognize me.
well they promised i would get it june 6th in my acct and it was there and i also rec’d a letter from them today too saying to expect it.
This year i filed my taxes on one of my w2s with out me knowing that i had another w2 coming well i had to file amended return on my 2nd w2 on that w2 i made over 3,000 i wanted to know if i will be getting a rebate check this year since on the 1st w2 i filed was only $800.00 but then on my 2nd w2 was over 3,000 i had to do has amended return . If i do get one still when should i get one
Yes, Amanda, you will receive one. Give it a minimum six weeks from the date you filed your amended taxes before you visit the IRS’s website to check the status of your rebate.
Got mine Saturday! Yea!
My number ends with 16, paid my tax
1 April , no Stimulus payment as of 9 June. Mailing of stimulus is not as Scheduled.What the problem ?.

is there a delay on rebate checks, scheduled for mailing on 5-30-2000. today is fri. 13, 2008 and no check in the mail
hey people quit being so greedy and work for your money.stop depending on the government for free money.if you need gas or groceries get an education and get a job that pays good or if you have to get a second job!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i’d just like to reply to “steph” from june 16 at 6:25am….maybe you should stop criticizing those around you in need. from what it sounds like, you don’t need any money…you could definitely use an education though, grammar is important! i, myself, hold a college degree and have a job, but times are tough. by the time i got my refund and put it in the bank, i was still overdrawn by $40. i hope that you have a job and want for nothing while you point fingers at others. people like you make me sick…”go get a second job”? right…and when do i get to see my husband and child? go get a life…
u no i had my address changed 2 weeks ago and still have not recieved any money yet i even called the irs to change the addreess
i buy a laptop last dec of 2008 until now i didnt recieved my rebate what happen to these company telling the buyers they will mail the rebate in a month are they telling the truth?
I would contact the laptop company directly. Sorry, not a tax issue!
