Ex-pat in Japan . Wife and I living on SS . Read conflicting articles re: stimulus money . I never thought I deserved it mind you , since I live overseas , but read via Jerusalem Post that dual citizens living in Israel and Israeli green card holders will get money so figured so should I . Anybody out there in the same boat as I ?

I’m still a Pats fan. No Brady, no check.

Sorry I can’t help on this one.

No. And now the IRS web site says they have no record of me. (Last week the web site said there was not enough information)

I live in US and on SS and have not received it either. I went online yesterday and the Get My Check site would accept my direct deposit info yesterday. It previously would not. The government said people on SS with direct deposit would receive payment automatically. Evidently that was not true in my case.

retired military, work part-time, wife full-time, our combined income/AGI is WELL below the cutoff and no $$ here either.

I’ve done a fakebook poll of my friends, family, friends of family, potentially several thousand people in this informal poll and NO ONE has received a check.

But Hahvud got several tens of millions of dollars, as did the Kennedy Center, many other “Friends of Nancy”.

FWIW.

It’s supposed to be in your next deposit.

“...The government said people on SS with direct deposit would receive payment automatically. Evidently that was not true in my case.”
*************************************************
I’m assuming that government will cross reference records so the folks with IRS income above the legislative limit will be screened from receiving a stimulus payment solely because of receipt of SS benefits via direct deposit.

My income was way under the legislative limit. And the government knew it. I filed a tax return in 2019. My AGI was way under and I paid taxes.

I have received zip. Understand I’d be paid via my SS direct deposit info.

COMMON SENSE would dictate that those who receive SS checks due to retirement are NOT out of work due to the panda-mike (pandemic). There is no reason to give them a check. It’s not going to help them ‘get back to work’.

Lived in Japan 3 years. Could you pick me up a few sticks from your local yakitori-ya and a Dai-Kirin? Many Domo’s.

Still working. Got my $$ on the first day. Was honestly surprised.

Does that mean you can stop paying taxes?

After several unsuccessful attempts, I finally got through the entry process, and now they say my direct deposit will happen. Nothing at the bank yet, but these things take some time (they should be instantaneous).

Now I can stock my refrigerator with gourmet ice cream.

it kills you though that all these people are going to and get the check including my mother? Common Sense would dictate that if you own a business s*** happen so **** you. And if you have a job s*** happens so *** you.

So *** you if you are a worker :-)

Constitution doesn’t say anything about a guarantee check for anybody so stop crying like a b**** about old people that need the money that I’m sure I could use it.

Our check arrived in the mail yesterday. We’ve had Zero taxable income for several years, so we’ve not filed lately.

We did the online, free file this year just to ensure that our names were in the system for a check.

We’re US residents, now.
