Grr. Looks like I won't be getting my stimulus payment anytime soon.

[Drunken Irishman]

Bummer. Luckily I don't need the money right away but I was hoping I'd get it in the first wave. Last time, I didn't get it until early February.

Anyone else getting a 'Payment Status - Not Available' on the IRS website?

https://www.irs.gov/coronavirus/get-my-payment

[LisaL]

1. Yep.

Same here. I know I am eligible. And there is only $5 left in the account-no stimulus yet.

[Drunken Irishman]

2. Same!

At least I know I'm not the only one who's eligible that isn't listed yet.

[rsdsharp]

8. Me too.

[Lunabell]

3. Thank you for the link.

Looks like I am scheduled for March 17th. I really need this right now.

41. Makings of a happier St. Patrick's Day.

☘☘☘☘☘🤑

[shanti]

43. March 17, me too n/t

[question everything]

48. Same here. Even got the correct account number, at least the last four digits..

[Sympthsical]

4. That is a super handy tool

We’re not eligible, but I checked for my mom. March 17th direct deposit.

Thanks for the link. I’ll share it around.

Bummer about the delay. Do you get direct deposit or is it mailed? I feel like mailed checks got to people a heck of a lot later.

[PoliticAverse]

5. Yes, got "Not Available" although I got the earlier 2 payments by check. n/t

[LisaL]

10. Mine says they don't have enough information and are working on it.

I got the first two payments, so where did the information go?

[EndlessWire]

45. Yeah.

Says "not enough info OR you are not eligible."

We'll see. I am starting to fidget.

[LisaL]

52. If I enter completely random numbers, I get the same message.

Seems like the darn tool can't find me.
Which is weird, since like I said, I got two previous payments with no issues.

[Galileo126]

6. Mine is scheduled for Mar 17th

Last time I got it 7 months after they announced the $600. Both are direct deposits.

-g

[Sanity Claws]

7. Thanks for the website

I checked it and see I will get it March 17 -- nice way to celebrate St. Patrick's Day

Sorry to hear about the message you got.

[beveeheart]

9. Yes, plus I didn't get the $600 for the same reason.

I got an email from my Congressman (Neguse) about this stimulus, so I plan on contacting his office if I don't receive it within a reasonable amount of time. I received the 1st $1200 without any problems.

[Elessar Zappa]

11. I never got my $600.

I had to claim it on my tax return but haven’t received it yet. I’m expecting my $1400 to take a while to get to me. It’s weird because I got the $1200 so I should have had no problem getting the next two. I only make $15,000 so there’s no question I’m eligible.

[beveeheart]

12. I haven't done my taxes yet and this weekend should be a good time

to do that since we're expecting a lot of snow here (Boulder area). How/where did you claim the $600 on the tax form?

[Elessar Zappa]

13. I can't remember which exact line but

it was under the "Recovery Rebate" part.

[beveeheart]

46. Thanks. I'll look for that part.

[GoCubsGo]

15. They're still passing those out.

I just got a letter from the IRS dated March 1, stating that the payment was direct-deposited. Don't give up on it yet, and if your last check was direct-deposited, check your account again. It might be there now. Also, I read that if you don't get it, you can recoup it as a tax credit.

[Cinnamonspice]

20. Possible explanation if you used certain tax services.

https://www.cnbc.com/2021/01/05/hr-block-turbotax-customers-report-issues-with-second-stimulus-check.html

[treestar]

58. Same here

I thought it was not subject to tax.

[Elessar Zappa]

60. It's not taxable

but they informed me the only way to get it now is claim the recovery rebate and I’ll get a refund of $600 (or $2000 if they send me both checks together).

[Paper Roses]

14. Me too.

[Deminpenn]

16. Not eligile for the $1400, but never got the $600 either

The IRS website just says it needs more information. I don't know if the rules for the $600 are the same as for the $1200 (amounts decrease up to the old cap) or the new rules (nothing if AGI over 80/160k).

[Paper Roses]

17. I just heard on the news that this option would not be available until Monday. n/t

[mikewv]

24. Yes. I read that too. So this thread is irrelevant

[LisaL]

28. No, IRS already has the stimulus tool up and running.

NT

[mikewv]

36. Thank You!

[keithsw]

18. dumb question

But, did you guys put a dash - between your SS numbers, or just 9 straight numbers?

[Drunken Irishman]

19. I did just the 9 numbers.

[Chellee]

21. I put straight numbers.

What tripped me up was forgetting to put / between the numbers in my DOB.

[mockmonkey]

34. dash, wouldn't accept it otherwise n/t

[mvd]

22. My mom got the same thing - Not Available

She is on Social Security got her first stimulus by direct deposit. But that account was closed and she got issued a check for the second stimulus. Now nothing is shown for the third stimulus.

[Drunken Irishman]

23. I assume it means we'll be in the next batch.

But it also probably means no direct deposit for me and I'll get stuck with a card again.

[mvd]

25. Probably

I guess all you and my mom can do is to keep watching Get My Payment. You should get the stimulus eventually. But it is frustrating. Mine was scheduled to be sent to a closed account AGAIN. Who knows how long it will take them to reissue a check.

[Shanti Shanti Shanti]

26. Mine will be direct deposited on the 17th of Mar according to IRS site, bank sent a message too

[ananda]

27. My notice is in my online banking account under "scheduled."

I will receive the stimulus payment on Mar 17 it says.

[JI7]

29. How do you usually get it ? Direct deposit or mailed ?

[mvd]

30. Maybe all who are getting a mailed check are PSNA right now

They haven’t gotten to them yet.

[JI7]

31. Mailed are usually late. I get direct deposit and have recieved them

pretty early. I haven't checked if I got the most recent one yet though.

I recieved the 2nd one really fast . The first one took a bit longer but not too long.

[BumRushDaShow]

35. Believe it or not

(and I get the paper check) 45 signed the legislation on Sunday December 27th and I had the 2nd check in my mailbox on Saturday January 2nd (and had it not been for the New Year's holiday, it might have come on the 1st).

The first check did come later.

[Wounded Bear]

32. Haven't checked that yet and probably won't...

I don't expect direct deposit because I didn't get either one of the other payments that way.

So, I'll be waiting.

[Xolodno]

33. I wouldn't rely on that.

On my tax refund, it said they had only received my filing but no scheduled date. It was deposited the next day. Same with the $600, "Not Available"....popped into my account a couple of days later. This one, my bank says I'm getting it on the 17th.

[alphafemale]

37. I'm not putting my full SSI number and DOB

Thanks.

[Drunken Irishman]

38. lol okay

[LisaL]

39. It's an official IRS tool.

NT

[FlyingPiggy]

59. It's the official government IRS site. I think it is pretty safe.

[alphafemale]

61. March 17th

I vetted it.

It is really too easy to make a bogus site that looks like a .gov though.

I make it a habit to not immediately trust anything.

[FlyingPiggy]

62. I don't blame you. I do the same. Especially when you are putting out

Your SSN, DOB, AND street address. But I knew this was safe from the last check.

[Kaleva]

40. Where the site asked for your street address, you need to give mailing adress.

I tried to find my info but got locked out after so many attempts. I was entering my actual street address. Then i thought i'd try my wife and I entered our PO Box number, our mailing address. There I got through and saw the report that the payment was approved and is being processed and where it will be deposited at.

[meow2u3]

42. All I get is an error message

Access Denied: that's the answer I get when I use Firefox.

[Kaleva]

49. I get that too when I use my actual address.

it works when I use my mailing address which is a PO Box.

[meow2u3]

53. My mailing address IS my actual address

I don't have a PO box.

Question is, is the IRS website programmed not to accept physical addresses? or is there a bug in their system?

[LiberalFighter]

44. Thanks for the link. They are depositing mine on the 17th.

[Luciferous]

47. Thanks for the link, ours is scheduled for the 17th

[lunatica]

50. I'll get mine on March 17

Next Wednesday I think.

[Roland99]

51. March 17 for me. Doesn't show amount tho

[msfiddlestix]

54. No, after plugging in my info, the date set for March 17 for me..

and same with a few neighbors of mine.

[LuckyCharms]

55. Thank you for the link. nt

[FlyingPiggy]

56. Mine is scheduled for St. Patrick's Day! Talk about luck of the Irish!

There IS a pot on gold! Thank you President Biden and all Democratic officials!

[treestar]

57. I have that even for the

600 one.
