Stimulus Check Arrival

[justplaintired]

We are joint filers, hubby's SS ending in 09, and our refund was auto deposited over a month ago in our checking account. As of 6:23 a.m. ET this morning, no deposit from the IRS in our checking as to the stimulus package. Just to give those with low numbers a heads up.

We filed direct deposit, hubby's social is also 09 and we have no deposit in our checking as of this morning. My guess is we will be with the original date of May 2nd. Promised my kids a clothes shopping day, went threw their closets last weekend, they have outgrown everything!

So if you guys last 2 digits are 09 and mines was 12, if the April 28 deposit was for the first batch which is all of us(00-20) then why was there no money on Monday(today)?

Only filers that elected electronic direct deposit of tax refunds when they filed with the IRS will get eletronic 'checks' auto-deposited into their accounts before May 16 based on the last two numbers of your SSN - see that schedule here - http://www.irs.gov/irs/article/0,,id=180250,00.html

Filers that elected to receive a paper refund check when they filed will receive their checks later - the paper check delivery schedule is here as well - http://www.irs.gov/irs/article/0,,id=180250,00.html . Paper checks will be going out between May 16 and July 11 also based on the last two numbers of your SSN.

Single filers are good to go. Howver, if you filed "married jointly", then the IRS is sending the checks according to the SSN of the first filer listed on the tax forms.

Hope this helps!

They said on the new that they were depositing 800,000 checks on Monday the 28th, 800,000 on Tuesday the 29th and 800,000 on Wednesday the 30th, skipping Thrusday and then on Friday May 2nd 5,000,000 (yes million). So chances are most of us are going to be on Friday. That was on CNN.com. Im waiting not very patiently.

I checked www.irs.gov and went to a link on that site called "calculator" and once I knew what I was getting based on exact information from my tax forms, I checked another link on the site and according to the last two digits of my ss# 12, I should have been getting something via direct deposit today 4-28-08 since I was in the first bunch with last two digits between 00 and 20. However, nothing was in my account today and I filed using direct deposit. Maybe tomorrow. I sure could use the amount they calculated of 1200.00 yipeeeeeeee!!!

I heard that the stimulus check is set to arrive 2 days sooner than previously planned. Went to the IRS site and didn't see any changes.

Anyone else hear this?

Not 2 days early, but 4 days early. Payments that were originally scheduled to be sent "by May 2nd" (the first batch) are now going out this Monday, April 28th.

Checks will go out Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday (not Thursday).

It was on my local news and on CNN.
