The IRS has posted a schedule indicating when tax payers, if eligible, will receive their tax payments. Keep in mind that these are estimates and the IRS could very well not meet this schedule. The schedule is based on the final two digits of your Social Security number. If you file jointly, use the last two digits of the primary filer’s Social Security number.
If the IRS has your banking information on file, as they would if you entered the information on your 2007 tax return in anticipation of a refund via direct deposit, these are the dates by which you will (most likely) receive your refund.
00 through 20: May 2
21 through 75: May 9
76 through 99: May 16
If the IRS does not have your direct deposit information on file, then you can expect a check to arrive based on this schedule (approximately).
00 through 09: May 16
10 through 18: May 23
19 through 25: May 30
26 through 38: June 6
39 through 51: June 13
52 through 63: June 20
64 through 75: June 27
76 through 87: July 4
88 through 99: July 11

We have our social security betwn 00 – 09 and have not yet received any stimulus check. We are married filing jointly and filed at April 15. The IRS website says it could come in 8 weeks after which is June 10. Still no check. We did received a note few months ago saying we would get the check. We have tried to notify the IRS but cannot get in touch with anyone directly and it is very frustrating.
Any ideas? Any way to talk to a real person at the IRS?
where is my check.
where is my check. last 2 no is 57
comment #46 answer: no, 300 for your boyfriend and 300 for any dependent under the age of 17 = 600. my BNL’s social ends in 50, he received a letter June 9th stating he will be getting a paper check June 13, he recieved the check on Monday June 16th. I think his taxes were file at the beginning of April.
plus, my ss ends in the 80′s and i have yet to receive a letter or a paper check. Go figure, I have been on other sites where people also end in the 80′s and have received their paper check 2 weeks ago. I dont understand whats going on and no one can give answers. A lot of people are fustrated because you cannot call and talk to a real person and the IRS website is never updated. I would like to know right now what SS numbers they are processing!

June 19th and no check for us, our # is 58. I hope it comes tomorrow. good luck to all!

This doesn’t quite answer my question: What about the first time home-buyers stimulus? How is that being dispensed? Where is it?
Here is the information about the $8,000 first-time home buyers’ rebate.
