[COLOR:BLUE]Hey, guys, I wanted to get some input from you about these tax rebate checks we have been promised. Hubby's last 2 digits in his social is 84, We filed our taxes on time, and have already gotten them directed in that account. We were supposed to have gotten our tax rebate deposited directly into that same account on May 16th. There has been nothing put into that account, as of today, the 23rd. We called the IRS hotline, and they told us that our tax preparer made a mistake in telling us when we would get it, , how much, etc. We call our tax preparer and she said just the opposite. Who is right? What did ya'll do? Did you use direct deposit? Did you use a tax preparer? How did you request that your money be sent? By check or direct deposit? Was your tax refund direct deposit or mailed to you? If you are on Social Security Disability, or know of someone who is, will or did they get a tax refund? Can somebody please tell me the answers to the questions? I am really confused right now and I need your help. Also, did you get a notice before hand to tell you how much you would receive and when? Also, did you get the amount promised, or more or less. Thanks for the information, guys, I really need to know your opinions and or experiences with this. Thanks again.

My fiances' last two are 86. Hers were filed on time and direct deposited. She still hasnt gotten hers yet either. I did a little research and I believe that if you got a RAL (refund anticipation loan) you will be mailed a paper check regardless of when you filed. I could be wrong, but Im hoping thats the problem. I dont know if the check will be mailed with the paper check schedule on the irs website or it will be some time in the next few days. You might want to check on that. Good Luck
Donna,
This is at their web site. We filed our own online through H&R Block and got it direct deposited on April 30. We took an education credit and that slowed it down a week according to the H&R site. We got the full $1200 for our family, no children under 18.
Maybe the preparer was late sending it in? You are supposed to get one even if you are on SSI, but you still had to file a return.



A small percentage of tax returns will require additional time to process and to compute a stimulus payment amount. For these returns, stimulus payments may not be issued in accordance with the schedule above, even if the tax return was processed by April 15.

All or part of an economic stimulus payment may be applied to back taxes or certain other debts of the taxpayer, such as delinquent child support and student loans. In such cases, the IRS will send a letter to the taxpayer explaining the offset.
My husband's last two are also 84 and we had our taxes prepared to be direct deposited. We were really banking on it to come in by May 16. It didn't, so I did some research also. I finally came upon a little FINE PRINT, so to speak. If you filed for an RAL OR you had any sort of fees (ex. tax preparation, etc.) you will not receive direct deposit as stated, but will have to wait another two months on a paper check. PRETTY UPSET!!!
Thanks guys, so very much for all the info. We didn't have our tax preparer's fee taken out of our taxes, Hubby wrote her a check for doing our taxes. So that is not the problem. Also, we didn't have any kind of loan or anything like that, that might slow it up or take up all the money promised. So, that apparently isn't it. We just did as we do every year, file our taxes with a tax preparer, no loan involved, no money owed extra of any kind. Nothing, Nada. I think maybe one or two of you may have the same problem that we have, It was promised on May 16th to be deposited in our checking account, and still nothing, Thanks, and if you see or hear anything else different, please let me know, I'm gonna do some checking myself. Thanks guys, I'll keep you in touch, and you do the same ok>? Thanks again. Hope everybody gets what they have coming to them. I feel like we are getting the ROYAL SHAFT again, as usual. Geez
Also, our was filed and sent a while before the April 15th deadline, and we have already gotten our state and federal refunds deposited into our checking account, it's just this one that is not working out right. HUH? Makes you wonder huh? I'll keep looking if you will too, guys, Thanks again, and let's keeping digging.
t, and PUF, for real, if we were holding our breath waiting for our checks to get here when they were supposed to, I'm afraid that a lot of us would have already been buried or would be in the process of being buried. Forget about using the money to pay off bills, go on vacations, etc. By the time some of us get it, we'll be using it for Food, because we will be starving to death.
our last is 85 and i thought i'd get mine may 16th when i didn't i called h&r block they said because i had my money taking out of my return i would get a paper check by july 4th. if u paid out of pocket and have a checking/savings account u should have it by no later than may 16th. that's just what they told me anyways!
Here is the question I am still not sure of. Is this a tax rebate like the last 2 that we will have to pay back in April ?
I try to break even every April, not have to send them any, not get much back, so I file my W4 accordingly. Does anybody know if I'll have to pay it back , if so it needs to go into savings , otherwise, it needs to be spent at the gulf coast.
