Tax rebates...

[kscwgirl]

For those who were in the first wave of direct deposits.. it could be as early as Monday when you see that money...... YAY!!! :thumbup:

[Becca Bonneville]

Yay! I can't wait! But we are in the last group for the direct deposits! lol

[my4boys]

I am not sure if we are direct deposit and frankly don't care as long as I get my check soon!!!! YIPEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

[rochelle789]

Aftering paying in a massive load of cash this year for taxes, I *hope* we are among the first wave. I could really use that money right about now. LOL!

[Becca Bonneville]

It goes by whether or not you did direct deposit and the last two of your ssn.

Here is the schedule:

[Sarah8914]

Apparently, they have changed the schedule a little... I know someone that got theirs today!

Ours isn't direct deposit... so it will be awhile, but that's okay!

[kscwgirl]

yep.. and they are saying that the first wave scheduled for May 2nd will actually hit Monday.

[Stacey42]

We're scheduled for May 9, that should be perfect because we bought a washer & dryer last week & the bill for it should arrive May 15. :)

[Emmy]

we're scheduled for the 2nd wave of May 9th too, but if it's a few days early all the better! can't wait! :thumbup:

[Leila]

We're scheduled for May 9th too! I'd love to see it early, I'm really itching to go buy my new camera.

[LenaGardner]

We're in the last wave. Okay, I'm not complaining. Any money is great and getting it whenever is great...BUT....moving it up just makes my irritation that much more bittersweet...with our original date, we were going to get the money 5 days too late to pay off my new laptop within the "90 days same as cash" window and now we are going to get the money ONE day too late :p Go figure....the money will still be paying off my new laptop, but that ONE day is a difference of $200. Poo.

Okay, maybe I am complaining. Hey atleast I have a smokin' laptop to scrap on right? Thanks, Uncle Sam ;) We are also picking up a few baby things...I shouldn't complain about the timing too much...getting a large check right before baby is a good thing :D

[AmyM]

5-2 here for us. Which will be lovely since I just ordered a new pair of glasses for Kassi today. Gonna be a pretty price.
Plus, I wanna do some shopping on NSD heeehee

Stupid question.... if you paid this year, instead of a refund... are you direct deposit or paper check? The years we have gotten a refund have always been direct deposit.

[nonnie]

Man - am I the only one who has to wait till the 16th??? :thumbdown:

Nope I am in that same boat!

[Shawna]

We were in the original DD group of May 9th so I was happy to hear this morning that they are starting disbursements early!! Can't wait to get our $$!!

Editing with quote from IRS site:

Q. I chose direct debit to pay my tax bill. Will my Stimulus Payment be direct deposited to the same account?

A. No, the account information used for an incoming Direct Debit payment to the IRS cannot be used as the account information for the Direct Deposit of the stimulus payment. People who choose Direct Debit to pay a balance due will receive their stimulus payments by paper check through the mail. [Updated 3/3/08]

[LibbysMommy]

Oh I am so excited now!! We're scheduled for the first round!! YAY!!

[digi-gee]

Yay! I was just reading this on MSN. Got my fingers crossed. We need some flooring BAD! Mine is going to help get us started on that.

[jene]

well if we go by my SSN then we are the second wave and then I am not sure if we are direct deposit of not but our state tax check was and we did rapid for the federal....so I don't know.....lol

[Leila]

Jen, was the federal refund direct deposited or a paper check? If it was paper, you'd be in the paper check schedule, if direct deposit, the direct deposit schedule.

[Traci Reed]

*grumble grumble* if *I* had filed under MY SSN first we'd be in the first wave, but since I did under P's first we'll be in the last...*SIGH*

[suze]

THANK YOU Leila!!!

[pbumbaca]

Yahooo, we are scheduled for May 9th too! That will really help right now! I saw something that said we wouldn't get ours till the end of the summer, it must have been a bad schedule!

[Leila]

Pam, the schedule for the previous rebate had been floating around as a model for this rebate. The dates are very off on that one...according to it, we wouldn't have this check until August. Now we're getting it either the 5th or 9th.

[junebug]

oooh! my DH's last two numbers fall in the first category and we did direct deposit! yay!

[~Julie~]

Woohoo!! I should get mine Monday then!!!

[ajf9597]

YAY! We're in the first wave and we did direct deposit, so we should be getting ours soon :)

[Becca Bonneville]

I just can't wait!! I am planning on getting a DSLR with mine! I haven't totally decided which one yet though!! I am soooo ready for a new camera!!!
