Stimulus Check Arrival

I guess ichb is just lucky. You lucky person you

I can only imagine the all out problems and heartache this has caused. I really wish this information had been available prior to this. I called the IRS just yesterday, and there was no mention of this whatsoever. I was assured by the IRS agent my deposit was coming next Friday. Guess not!

I talked to the irs today. they told me there is a catch for this direct deposit of your check. if you filed your taxes with a third party (taxslayer, turbo tax, etc....) you will get a paper check not direct deposit. i knew there would be a catch there always is.

Well, that settles it. That's my whole problem right there. I paid Turbo Tax my filing fee through my refund, and I am now royally screwed.

I used turbo tax but paid with my visa check card. I hope I'm not screwed too.

I would have to say that is not the reason, we filed with Turbo Tax and had the refund direct deposited. We also had the fee taken from our refund.

Did someone on here say they did the same (Turbo Tax, Santa Barbara Bank and Trust) and did get direct deposit of their stimulus rebate? Did I read that correctly?

I'm not sure if ichb used the trust company or not like some of us

Hello, I'm new here, found the site by googling questions about this stimulus and BK.

Filed Chapter 7 - 11-30-2007
Discharged: 3-11-2008 but held open for my tax refund.


My trustee, (without my knowledge) had my normal tax refund intercepted. My attorney told me to file taxes normally and once money was deposited, I had to get a certified check for the amount Trustee was taking from refund - but trustee had IRS send him the check.

I had filed taxes for direct deposit. But IRS sent paper check to my trustee. NOW, I am wondering if my stimulus check will be direct deposited, or if the IRS will send my stimulus check to my trustee in the same way they did the taxes????

I've asked my attorney's paralegal and she had no clue. At same time I asked if I get to keep the check, and she said "I think so - because you filed bk before the stimulus was made into law - don't spend it and call back when you get it and she would check."

Just wondering if anyone else had something similar to this happen. I've tried the "where's my stimulus" and it will not work for me. Last 2 digits are 39 - so I am hoping next week it will come?! I HOPE

Ours was just auto deposited today (5/2) - $1200. My hubby's SS ends in "09."

What time was it deposited?

Well I found out my DH is correct with our check. We had it direct deposited but it went thru some thing called the Santa Barbara Bank & Trust? So yup will be getting a paper check at the end of may. Ugh I guess I was wrong again LOL.

I also found it manually but still nothing.

[shortee]

Really?Maybe we'll be lucky and get it later today then. My Dh called a couple minutes ago telling me what I just posted.

We actually had a little disagreement about it to LOL. I hope hes not right

& I found out the question of how much we will be getting. 600 - 1200 if filed before may and 300 - 600 filed after.
