5. If they have never filed a tax return...

I assume the IRS has neither the bank information for direct deposit nor an address for them to apply money to.

I think you can check or apply on irs.gov

11. If you can claim them on your taxes then they aren't eligible

But if they aren’t claimed then they can use the new IRS tool on their website to put their direct deposit info in. If they filed in 2018 and got a direct deposit (and weren’t claimed on your taxes) they shouldn’t need to do anything.

The new IRS tool is hard to get to this morning.

don't qualify as kids. And since they didn't file they can't get money because we claimed them. Therefore the govt thinks my kids aren't worth feeding.

On top of that, they may not be eligible for unemployment. Both my kids worked on campus; neither of them were laid off- there’s just no hours to be worked currently.

12. Can't Check My Account

Guessing loads of people who need it more than us are bombarding the site.
Tech difficulties with on line banking since 8am CDT.
We're only getting 3/8ths of the amount, so we might be prioritized low and might not get it for a while, anyway.

21. My dad proudly texted "Just got my money from The Donald."

He loves Agolf Twitler but can't seem to put together a reason other than "I just like him cause he doesn't take shit."

Whatever, I don't bother discussing politics with him, but I was happy to text back, "Got mine too, but for reference, that money is tax revenue, and never belonged to "The Donald"."
