Tax Rebate Rollout FYI

Here’s how the checks will roll out:

If you file your return on time and request that your federal income tax refund is directly deposited, the stimulus payments will directly go into your bank account by May 2 if the last two digits of your Social Security number are 00-20.

If the last two digits are 21-75, the date to remember is May 9.

If the last two digits are 76-99, you’d get that money by May 16.

But if you do not use direct deposit to get your federal income tax refund – or you are paying taxes owed when you file that 2007 return – you’re going to get your tax rebate check later. The rollout times are more complicated, too.

If your last two digits of your Social Security number are 00-09, you could expect that rebate check to be mailed by May 16.

It’s by May 23 if the last two digits are 10-18.

It’s May 30 if the digits are 19-25.

It’s June 6 if the digits are 26-38.

It’s June 13 if the digits are 39-51.

It’s June 20 if the digits are 52-63.

It’s June 27 if the digits are 64-75.

It’s July 4 if the digits are 76-87.

It’s by July 11 if the digits are 88 -99 and the person did not use direct deposit of a refund this year – or if you wrote a check to cover money owed for the 2007 tax year.

You may not get your hands on the stimulus money, though, in some cases if you’ve got some financial troubles – like past-due income taxes, either state or federal, and delinquent payments on student loans and child-support.

If you are in a formal repayment plan for a student loan or IRS tax bill, you’ll likely get the stimulus check.

The IRS will send letters to tell you if your check has been applied directly to other back-taxes or delinquent debts.

 

For joint filers I assume (dangerous) that the target SSN for purposes of this exercise is the Primary filer's SSN?

 

Hehe, a drop in the bucket really. Where is this money really going? China or mid-east? Who owns your loans?

 

From what I have read, it is the first SSN listed on your taxes.

 

Wonderful.. I don't get stimulated till July. And I could really use it now being out of work and all.

I think that next week I am going to start a little project that I have been working on for a little bit and start advertising to do grafx work for local bands and such and work my way up the food chain.

Tired of not working... i applied for over 100 positions int he last 2 weeks and not a single phone call..... getting tired of this.

I feel ya CT, same here! Then employers want to know why you've been unemployed so long rolleyes

Luckily, I got my on friday (but my SSN didnt fall between the two numbers indicated, maybe the gov'ment just likes meLOL).

 

As I have all my last visited tabs open whenever I open my browser I've had this tab opening everyday for weeks now to remind me of when ours are coming! LOL

 

Direct here to this page for an explanation and/or to verify she got the right amount.

 

Last two digits are 73 and direct deposit was chosen on our tax return...nothing yet...and it is May 9...

Anyone get theirs and if so - what time of day was it deposited?

 

Chris's was there first thing this morning...a co-worker of his had hers last night.

As there are so many that have to go out and depending on when your bank credits electronic deposits I would give it til the close of business today. At the latest, unless there is a problem of some sort I would say according to the info on the site you should have it by tomorrow.

 

Bummer.

Did you file? I will be getting a payment based on my social security even though I normally don't file at all.

 

Thanks. Maybe they're going alphabetically also. We're "R" in that case. LOL

 

Im not sure if this is true or not but I heard that they are also giving out the rebates to those who files their returns early. Like the earlier you filed the earlier you should receive it. It kinda makes sense to me because my last 2 dont fall between 00-20 but I got my rebate on May 2nd and I filed my tax return before they started taking them in JanuaryLOL
