Did You Get Your Stimulus Payment Yet?
The IRS has already sent out payments to 60 million people who filed tax returns in 2018 or 2019. If you'd like to track the status of your payment, the IRS set up a portal here. Because of the large number of people who have been using this site, it has been inoperable most of the day. Also, if you are a social security recipient, the IRS is going to pay you the way you're paid now, but lacks sufficient data at this point to track your payment. It will have this data soon.

You own views are appreciated, especially if they differ from mine. But remember, commenting is a privilege, not a right. I will delete personal attacks or off-topic remarks at my discretion. Comments that play into the tribalism that has consumed this nation will be declined. So will comments alleging voter fraud unless backed up by concrete evidence. If you attack someone personally, I expect you to identify yourself. I will delete criticisms of my comment policy, vulgarities, cut-and-paste jobs from other sources and any suggestion of violence towards anyone. I will also delete sweeping generalizations about mainstream parties or ideologies, i.e. identity politics. My decisions on these matters are made on a case by case basis, and may be affected by my mood that day, my access to the blog at the time the comment was made or other information that isn’t readily apparent.
Ours was credited to our bank account on Wednesday. Ironically, the "normal" tax return filing deadline.
ReplyDeleteIt showed up in my bank account Tuesday evening.
ReplyDeleteNo
ReplyDeleteFamily of five, filed 2018 & 2019 return, I got this message on the irs.gov site--"According to information that we have on file, we cannot determine your eligibility for a payment at this time."
ReplyDeleteYes but:
ReplyDeleteTrump Denied - Trump Lied - People Died
30,985 Americans & Counting
China denied - China lied - People died
ReplyDelete160,000 people and counting
And likely more than 100,000 Chinese who were NOT counted

ReplyDeleteThe website has been a disaster - must have been designed by Governor Wolf. If you filed AND the IRS has your bank information, the money will be deposited very soon.
I paid the last three years. Barely, but paid. So we'll see!
DeleteYes. Tracking site worked fine for me and monies were deposited on the correct day. Sucks that people are having trouble and that check payments are being delayed so the president can add campaign propaganda (i.e. his signature) to the checks.
ReplyDeleteI’ve had problems with Pennsylvania’s various websites for several years now. It would not surprise me one bit if the equipment used is substandard for a challenge like this. The State Tax paying online instructions are misleading, and screen freezes common.
ReplyDeleteEveryone has been told, if your direct deposit bank info is not already in use by the IRS, your stimulus check will take longer. My stimulus deposit came very quickly.
Since I’ve paid the IRS for the past several years, they had no idea where to send a direct deposit, even though I’m also a Social Security recipient. I visited the “Where’s My Payment” portion of the IRS.gov website yesterday and gave my routing and account numbers. I checked back this morning and they said that they would update the page once they had a process date. Very straightforward.
ReplyDeleteI had no problems. I received mine Wednesday morning. For the hell of it i checked with my daughter for hers. Maybe 5-8 minutes of the site automatically refreshing and we entered info. No problem.
ReplyDeleteNo wolf is holding them up for intrests monies to pay for PA's sex change operations for his cabinet.
ReplyDeleteGot ours. Didn’t need it at all. My husband and I are still working, he gets five paychecks and I get three this month. You bet your ass we’re doing just fine. Qualified just by the skin of our teeth at just under $190k a year. Thank you Chinese virus!
ReplyDelete17 to 24 yo dependents got "jack squat", mostly full-time college kids with partime jobs.
ReplyDeleteLoss jobs and school and are needlessly on lock-down.
