$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ SIX HUNDRED DOLLARS $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

if you really think that it's been sent, report it stolen. the irs sucks, but they'll do something about it. al had to do that with his tax return this year.

I got A LETTER yesterday saying my check is coming by FRIDAY. How efficient.

Yeh, I got one yesterday saying the same thing. While it does seem silly, and I am eager to mock inefficiencies, I think it's meant to be a safeguard against stolen or lost checks.

uh i got that letter on may 12, saying i would have my check by may 16. i still don't have the check. i called the irs yesterday about a different issue and they said they were mailing our check this friday and we should have it within two weeks. the point being, don't put too much credence in what that letter says

god we're getting a paper check and our last ssn numbers are SO HIGH. all the way to july for us:(

although i strongly suspect if i got that check today id be saying in july something along the lines of i wish we were getting a $1500 check this month

So I owed the USG money. They sent me a bill w/ a 1% late fee attached since I was stupid enough not to pay when I originally filed. I sent them a check. They cashed it. Then I get my stimulus check a few weeks later (a week after I got my COMING FRIDAY teaser) w/ the amount I owed deducted. WHAT THE FUCK GEORGE.

Where's the bank bitching thread, as predicted I want to bitch about Citibank.

A Thread on American Banking Options That Don't Suck a Caribou's Ass

indeed, mmm caribou arse

Yeah, ours had our final tax bill deducted too. I don't see how last year's taxes and this year's bribe have anything to do with each other!

RAAAAAAARRRRRWWW

I'm still waiting!

You and me both.

and my soc. ends in 20

I got mine of Tuesday, but I'd already spent most of it in pre-windfall anticapation.

^ true American

I'm tempted to actuall call the IRS (HA) about this, but given I owed last year, maybe now we'll be square for next year. Tho thinking about calling reminds of those halcyon pre-911 days when my then-roommate would light up a joint and call the IRS to bitch about how the income tax was unconstitutional and then not give supermarkets his personal info when signing up for a frequent shoppers' card and got one under the name LYSANDER SPOONER.

I'M STILL WAITING!!!! and after last weekends shennanigans i really need it. there are records to buy and shows to see and drugs to score and beers to drink.

and i should probably get some groceries at some point.

kevin otm; I got mine and am using to pay off my secured credit card so i can take back the money from the secured account

if i miss this simply saucer show i'm gonna be pissed.

finally received letter saying i'll receive the check on the 20th... we'll see how that goes

WHERE THE FUCK IS IT

will go towards my massive credit card bill from getting my car fixed or possible future dental work

Ha -- I rec'd a SECOND check yesterday, "reimbursing" me the amount of owed taxes I paid prior to them sending out my first stimulus check w/ my owed taxes deducted from the original $$$$$$$ SIX HUNDRED DOLLARS $$$$$$$ despite me having paid the owed taxes well in advance (more than 1 month?) prior to the check being cut. GOVERNMENT IN ACTION AWRIGHT

Tom, you shd just walk over and ask.

el tomboto discovers the downside of working for the NSA: once theyve got you...theyve got you.

Can someone make I'M HELPING buttons / temp tattoos for folks that actually spend their stimbux on goods & services?

mine came yesterday, blew it on cheap beer and expensive burgers. that's not really blowing it though.

STIMULATIN'!!!!
xp

Check came yesterday. Can't cash it because it needs two signatures and my wife is out of the country. It will end up paying retroactively for a crown my wife recently had installed in her mouth. Easy come...

Once I get this it will pay off THE LAST OF MY DEBT and I will do a requisite I AM NOT IN DEBT post, so wheeeeeee

Congrats, fct. It's a whole new land, a good land, where cattle can grow fat on the wholesome grass and the meadowlark sings to the noonday sun.

Woohoo! I guess I'll get a second check too! I thought that "we're deducting the amt of tax you owed" was bullshit if we'd already paid it.

ok so that date you get it based on your ss# did yall actually get it on yalls date?? cuz mine is june 27 but i wanna make sure i get it in time to pay the damn rent

it might. it might not. the gov's wheels grind at their own pace and there's no hurrying them.

mine was supposed to roll out in the second wave but i still havent gotten it yet

Sheeeit, I got mine back in May and I barely remember it, it was gone so fast...

I rec'd my first check within 7-10 days of the date I was sent (which I don't think was the date tied to my SSN).

I kind of thought that L-T was out of the $600 refund bracket.

I'm in the $350 bracket, I think.
