Waiting for your $600.00 check?

[Paper Roses]

I just heard on WCVB Boston that the checks are being delayed because the IRS sent the initial checks out too soon and the system is severely backlogged. I missed part of the notification but it seems that we should not count on getting this check too soon. This is a major screw-up for a lot of people. Can this government do anything right?

Many of us needed that extra $$$, the plumber is expecting his check this week, house taxes due Feb 1 and then of course there are other bills for all of us.

I have trouble understanding how we have fallen so far but I bet it has something to do with the ineptitude of the tRump administration.

1. I wasn't expecting it any time soon.

Several people I know got theirs weeks before I got mine the last time.

2. When I finally got the IRS "get my payment" tool to work yesterday it said my payment was...

scheduled to be mailed 01/06 (yesterday)...I guess it could be a check or a prepaid debit card...This, in spite of the fact that I get SS monthly by direct deposit and the first stimulus payment came that way...so, who knows...may show up in a few days or never...

10. Thanks for the link, it said my check was mailed on 1/6.

It also told me that I would get a letter from the IRS. Don't know what that means.

7. Mine was posted within a day of it going into effect.

I always filed my taxes using direct deposit, so that surely helped me.

8. Weird - I got mine days ago but my husband (and yes, we have the same last name

and file joint returns) has not gotten his. Last stimulus, we didn't get ours until weeks and weeks after others on here had gotten theirs.

15. Well mine went to a closed account

And they say those people have to wait to file their taxes to get a rebate credit. That is disgraceful as there was no chance to change anything. I sure hope the $2000 amount (if sent) turns out better.

18. I always file

direct deposit but the IRS website said it was being mailed. So I guess June or July.

20. Received mine by direct deposit on January 4th.

My bank even sent an email prior to that, explaining that I could probably expect it the week of the 4th.
