In Reply to: For anyone who has received a stimulus check by mail, have you all gotten a letter about a week - PAMT
I had a letter a few months ago but not a week before it should have been mailed. According to the website mine was to be mailed NO LATER than 5/23 - and I still don't have it. :(

To all those wondering about stimulus checks SM
who are not direct deposit . . Got mine in the mail Friday and my last two numbers were 06. 
I agree. We have to pay out a lot. The stimulus checks should be for everyone! sm
I owed 4800 this year. BUT no stimulus check. Ok, fine, can accept that btu shoudn't my "stimulus check" go toward what I owe!!! Sorry but my bills are going up just like everone else so I don't deserve any "extra" either??
the checks should be right there in the store - sm
I would think. Or whichever store they run their office from. They should have been able to write one out for you then and there. I would not have left without it, they know you want the money and are going to jerk you around until you give up. I would think that you had a court judgement or order by now and they have to do it or be arrested, etc, could not the deputy arrest the store mananger for something, obstructing the order? Failing to comply, whatever. As for the bank, it would probably be one of the top 3 banks in the area, though I don't know if the bank would tell you if they had an account there. You can always make some calls and try to find out. If they won't give you the money, take your $700 worth of furniture, and obviously try to pick something you want to actually keep, otherwise you will probably only get half of what the retail is if you are lucky and you are still out a chunk of change.
i write checks
only when I have to, but I have adorable checks. I know it takes a BIT longer, but now with the new "slide your own card, then type 100 keys just to say OK to the transaction" it's about the same time, if you really think about it.
The thing about people stopping in the middle of an aisle OMG why why WHY do they do that? GET OUT OF THE WAY, MOVE TO THE SIDE, BE CONSIDERATE!!! im with you on that one
I believe non-DD people won't get checks for months. sm
Someone had a stimulus refund link on here, below, I believe.
Re: Those economy-stimulation checks - sm
I still haven't gotten mine, and will believe it when I have it in my hand. Worse, I just got one of those "Return Information Notices" in the mail. Well, guess what? The state of Calif. did a little number-rearranging, (or should I maybe call it "fuzzy math"?), and my state income tax refund has been changed from over $300 down to ZERO. When you call the number on the website, and finally get a live person to help, they very helpfully refer you to "someone who can go over it with you", and then the system tells you it's too busy, and hangs up on you!
And get THIS: The actually had a LOWER taxable income than I had calculated. So how do they figure I am suddenly owed NO refund? It sure sounds like that's how the gov't. is funding those economic stimulus checks. Like I'm really sure that gypping us like that is going to create an economic stimulus.
Looks like once again, this Calif. taxpayer has been Californicated.
arrested for bad checks - not Caylee
very unusual for someone to be arrested that way for bad checks, that scened was sooo dramatic. The cops must hate her too
I use checks, but have streamlined the process - sm
by filling out everything but the amount (date, signature, phone number) on the check, & entering all info. into my check register except the amount, before even leaving for the store. Check is torn out, and in my wallet where I can just pull it out, write in the total, hand it to the cashier, and take off as soon as she gives me the receipt.
Nowadays their computer/cash machine setup takes only seconds to verify the check. I usually wait to fill in the amount in the check register until I get home.
It's weird, but often I find it takes longer to pay with money than it does with a check. (Especially if I have a bunch of change and I'm trying to pay with the exact amount.) That seems to freak people out in line even more than using a check.
Also, nowadays the checker ends up doing the bagging, too (seems the stores have cut WAY back on hiring baggers.) So as he or she finishes each bag, I put it in the cart from where I'm standing, so he or she doesn't have to walk around the counter to do it. And I grab things like milk jugs, big 12-pack soft-drink cartons, cat litter, and other big things that don't really need a bag.
Anyway, I find doing just those few things seems to get me through the line pretty fast.
free credit checks.
Is there a way to obtain your credit report for free? I have never checked it. I have always been afraid to, but now I would like to check it now matter how bad and figure on a way to make it better. I have looked on line and found several sites offering "free" credit checks, but then pay a monthly fee for something. I don't want any monthly fees as that is my problem now. I have too many straws in my bank account. I was wondering if my bank would do it or maybe an 800. If I ask, would I get laughed out of the building imaging something for free? TIA.
no, nobody knows but the bank, they will cover checks you wrote
nm
It was my understanding, the checks are mailed out on Fridays, and
delivered..provided the mailing address was correct!
How much are stamps these days???
Tax stimulus
Anybody with a ss# ending in 00-09 get their stimulus in the mail yet? I am not referring to direct deposit...only via mail.
My ss# falls in this category and I don't have a car. Don't want to waste money on a cab to the post office unless I have a pretty good indication that the check might be there. I live in GA.
Thanks
stimulus
Talked to my parents last night. They live in an old-age apt complex and some of the residents have already received theirs. My parents said they each would receive their stimulus on May 10.
Pugmom..the ED checks records and will know that you are not a frequent flyer....sm
And believe me, there are some that are there like every other day.
Something else you might want to do too( I have typed urology both adult and peds for 19 years now and have lots of hints LOL) is to walk as much as possible, drink LOTS of water, and perhaps cranberry juice. The walking is supposed to help the stone get moving, the liquids are to help flush it out once it starts moving. The cranberry juice should help with the start of an infection.
Some people though, never pass their stone(s) and have not one iota of pain and suffering once the initial diagnosis is made.
I am so glad to hear that you are doing better. Myself and others were worried for you. Glad you are back.
where's my stimulus tracker i mean

more stimulus news . . .
I just found out that if you had you taxes done by a financial institution like HR Block and you chose to have their fee taken from your refund then you receive your stimulus by mailed check, so you should check the mailing schedule, not direct deposit
you can do the Where's my stimulus form
on the IRS site
Stimulus Letter
Even though I had my direct deposited, I actually got a letter two days after it was already deposited that it would be coming.
still no stimulus check !
Anyone else still waiting for their check to arrive via snail mail? Mine was supposed to be here a month ago. I'm beginning to wonder if I'll ever see it. 
stimulus money
I wonder if anyone knows if you're an IC, do you get any stimulus money or if you're on disability, do you get any? If you know, please respond.
Checks could be in taxpayer mailboxes by June, according to an Associated Press report.

Info on stimulus payment...
I looked on irs.gov and looked under where is my stimulus payment. It said if you did not send you taxes off until April 15 or close to April 15 you taxes weren't late but the taxes weren't processed by April 15. So you will not get your payment on that date on the schedule. It can be up to 6 weeks later. I mailed mine on April 15 so that is why I didn't get it today.
so will there be an actual stimulus check?
and how long will the extra $13 be there?
Well I got a notice from the IRS that I could expect my stimulus check by May 30 and I didnt
get it today. I will get mine by mail. I wonder how far off it comes from when they say it will come.
Would filing your taxes late affect your stimulus check?
We filed an extension, and then sent our return out about two weeks late. We are getting a refund, so it wasn't like we owed the IRS or anything. It was just a complicated return and we were just procrastinators.
For anyone who has received a stimulus check by mail, have you all gotten a letter about a week
before the check stating when it would be arriving.
