FFS.

Mine arrived as of this morning, but not my boyfriend’s.

we just got ours. plus 500 per kid

I got mine this morning. To the credit card bill it goes!

got mine but it's a weird amount. originally thought we wouldn't get anything then realized it was based off taxable income, not gross; but what I received was $1,988.55 which is about $1k less than I'd assumed we'd get (married, one kid). Maybe it decreases the higher the income before it cuts off entirely?

Yes -- this morning. The full amount. It's going toward the Campari fund.

apparently there is a maximum number of times you an try and enter your direct deposit info on the IRS website and you get locked out for 24 hours (just happened to me...) so... there you go

akm:

Eligible individuals with adjusted gross income up to $75,000 for single filers, $112,500 for head of household filers and $150,000 for married filing jointly are eligible for the full $1,200 for individuals and $2,400 married filing jointly. In addition, they are eligible for an additional $500 per qualifying child.

For filers with income above those amounts, the payment amount is reduced by $5 for each $100 above the $75,000/$112,500/$150,000 thresholds. Single filers with income exceeding $99,000, $136,500 for head of household filers and $198,000 for joint filers with no children are not eligible and will not receive payments.

not to speak out of school but if my math is right your joint file is a little under $170k?

found the same thing....yeah, from what I recall (I didn't do taxes for this year yet, so this was last year). I'm still not sure why it's such a weird amount though and not something rounded off and normal. 55 cents, really?
anyway luckily this was direct deposited so I do not have to see the president's serial killer scrawl

Mine arrived as of this morning, but not my boyfriend’s.

exact same.

trying to be here for your disappointment while i have a shit-eating grin on my face.

anyone else feel like getting money for not working is a thing they could do for the rest of their lives?

I've being getting away that shit for nearly a decade now, might as well carry on to the death lol!

Haven't filed taxes yet (pretty sure we owe this year, instead of expecting a refund as usual). But because we got a refund last year, our direct deposit info was already on file. It seems to have arrived last night or early this morning.

I didn't quite understand the amount but whatevs

Gonna divide it among charities unless some unexpected curveball hits us in the next two weeks

Got my prorated deposit, will mentally add it to the pile of money I need to be giving away

^ bill gates over here!

Pfft

i got mine too

My wife and I got ours by direct deposit yesterday.

congrats everyone

it really sucks to think that other people who need it more than me aren't getting it.

but not enough to enjoy having it for a second .. the truth is i've been right above the poverty line for years so

i'm paying all my bills for the month then buying some motherfucking weed

Yeah, I've maintained my regular work life through all this (I telecommute already), but I'm not rich and barely even comfortable, so $1200 goes a hell of a long way.

Went to the IRS Get My Payment site this morning... IRS doesn't have my direct deposit info (they should, I got my refund for tax year 2018 via DD) but their update banking info form crashes if the amount owed/amount refunded on your tax return is zero... and for 2019, that's what mine is. Oh well, maybe I'll get a paper check this summer sometime.

(I'm still employed, so I don't really need it urgently)

A million times yes but only until one of us has a health emergency w/o insurance. o__O

Due to totally unpredictable circumstances I'm banking money even making my usual monthly donations plus throwing money at causes that cross my soc med. Think I'm gonna give it away a la silby. It's true I have no idea how long I'm going to be out of work so there's def an argument about saving for later, but there are more ppl who don't have the necessities for survival right now.

someone who knows something explain this to me: if i haven't filed my taxes yet this year, how do they determine if i'm eligible?

Not to preach, sorry. I also don't have a family so there's not as much responsibility on me to plan for the future for others besides myself.

It's just hard to imagine going back to work after this.

xp your taxes from 2018?

they use your tax return from 2018 if you haven't filed your 2019 returns yet

there's a lot of people who $1200 is going to be such a big deal for. wonder if the will help trump's reelection

this even

If people are still unable to work in July, I doubt this one payment in April/May will endear anyone to Trump that much. They're still going to be in dire straits.

I suggest incorporating yourself as a cruise line and applying for stimulus funding.

They're still going to be in dire straits

Hey remember that song "Money for Nothing"?

crewsh jam

bank balance indicates I have it

I checked the IRS site and it said I qualify for it, but they don't have my direct deposit info even though I've e-filed for years. Go to step 2, which is entering 2019 AGI, refund amount, tracking and routing. Site says "your info doesn't match our info, gtfo." I email my tax preparer, who actually said "maybe the internet is slow" to me.

$2400 hit our account this morning. We’re probably gonna buy a huge TV.

xp jfc!

I got mine this morning -- $600 to credit card #1, $300 to credit card #2, kept the other $300 for now. ... feeling like keeping my credit "good to excellent" is strategic in case things get worse and I need to get a "real" loan.

good advice

late March. He said he got e-file confirmation 3/31

March 31st -- it is possible that it isn't in their system. Were you due a refund for the year and if so, have you received it?

Got mine. Mom got hers. Dad got his.

Brother and his gf got nothing.

Trump hates professional actors

hey just to make extra sure, the filing deadline is extended to July right? Or do I need to go blaze thru turbotax rn

looks like yes

For only $15.99 a month you can get a box of tax forms shipped to your home! We select the forms and publications we think you will love.

n.b. back in the day, if you signed up to take the IRS Enrolled Agent Exam (basically the equivalent of the bar exam for tax professionals), you could check a box and request exam study materials free of charge. I did this, this was back in 2003. They sent two large boxes of just about every single tax form and publication to my home.

For anyone who was getting error 109 trying to enter zero owed/zero refunded on the bank account info page, looks like they fixed it last night. I was able to complete the process just now. Give it a try.

yep, went through. Thanks for the heads up!

^^^ thanks! Mine went through. I filed jointly with my wife so I'm not sure if both went through. I tried doing the same process with her SSN and birthdate and it went to a Logged Out screen so maybe?

hmm, sounds like it might still have you logged in with your own account... I'd fire up an incognito window in your browser and try to enter her info again.

Just tried again and it says hers is scheduled for deposit as well.

result! sounds like the turnaround is 1-2 weeks for direct deposits once you enter your info

Sweet, I think it actually worked. And I know it's just a coincidence that I hit 'submit' and immediately received two spam emails under my primary address which is generally entirely spam-free, I know that it must be a coincidence but still.

How do you think they're paying for your 1200, OL?

Finally got my payment. The 2-week turnaround after entering your info seems to be the case. I told myself and others I'm banking this money in anticipation of traveling when the social distancing guidelines relax.

Mine came through today too

got mine last week, just a week after entering my info

had signed up for electronic deposit but for some reason it came as a paper check

got mine this AM; was finally able to put in DD info... whenever that started working. 10 days ago? more or less.

got a paper check in the mail on monday

also got my direct deposit today! I entered my bank info on April 25th so it took 11 days. Guessing they are doing waves of direct deposits once a week?

I know a lot of frustrated grad students who filed with foreign addresses in 2018/2019 and now can't even get past the verification screen.

xp- that's how they normally process tax refunds (in batches once a week), so that is a very good guess

cleared by direct deposit yesterday.

Arrived via direct deposit today. Now we get to start pushing it out to some places where we know it is needed: some of it to people we know, some to non-profits like the food bank.

Like Hadrian, I also got my paper check after putting in my direct deposit. No complaints

Ummmmmm...still nuthin. This is because I spent the last four years calling Trump a worthless fuck, isn't it?

eh, i didn't get mine yet either

all that sucking didn't pay off huh

haven't gotten mine yet but also haven't gotten a free day to spend on the phone which I assume is the length of time it'll take to pry it free from phone menu hell

we got our check yesterday! mailed by post to our address in paree! I was not expecting that.

Got my check on Saturday, deposited it on Monday. Good thing, too, since I lost my job last week.

lol Euler good for you for filing US taxes every year :)

yeah thanks to the usa for requiring that we do that! for once it pays off.

in response bought a new se for my oldest so we are stimulating the us economy with it, in some remote way at least

I didn’t do anything online and got my check at the end of April. Two weeks later I got a letter saying the check was on its way.

have not gotten mine yet, am worried I just won't (we have a lot of mail theft)
