good news...i had the same problem helping my friend set up a premium VA account.
lives on “st. john’s st.”
We finally figured it out.
Must be a Fed thing...
so, is Weds your normal SS get day\date?
Actually, no. My normal SS pay date is the morning of the 3rd of each month - unless it falls on a weekend then the prev Friday. Wednesday the 29th is odd - but of course welcome. I hope before the week is out to contract a deal for some work I need done.

I suppose so. When I think about it, it is a good security thing; I just wish they had made it clearer. When I read the FAQs and thought about it, it seemed worth a try; IRS has only one filing from me in a number of years, so for direct deposit it had to rely on the SS records. I think I would have received the direct deposit anyway, despite my fumbling around. They already had a pay date and my bank acct number - but I didn't know that.
