Did you spend it?

Did you put it in the bank?

Did you help someone out?

They have mailed some checks this week. Just make sure the IRS has your current address on file if you’re not getting it by direct deposit.

It was presumed all Social Security folks would get their stimulus payment by direct deposit. But the IRS is sending checks by mail for people who get tax refunds by mail, even seniors on Soc.Security.

So be sure the IRS has a current address for you if you’re not doing direct deposit.

I paid $800 to the IRS and put the other $400 towards my property taxes which increased $700 this year.

Thanks for your post- Because of your result @ IRS website, I decided to try again, and they now say that my deposit is on the way! I’m going to buy a Ford truck air conditioner compressor.

Remember 14% interest paid on CD’s in the late 70’s? This much money injected into a market with developing shortages should also have interesting consequences. That SS check will be playing catch-up down the road.

As a middle class taxpayer I’ve paid more than my fair share over the years.

Keeping the return of my taxes to better my family.

My son-in-law is a hair stylist. Not allowed to work. I am hanging on to that stimulus check to help get us through this. I Am Furious!

Aside, my daughter went out with perfectly coifed hair the other day and she actually got stink eye! People are getting surly...

Nothing is free, there will be strings, ropes, anchor chains down the road. The idea is too nice...almost like a drug dealer passing out samples.
Sure its needed but its geing misused more than anyone knows.

Ive heard a number of stories already about this happening with the checks.

I didn’t get one for my mother but I still get other things from time to time and shes been gone 20 years too.

Spare us your half-assed smug. That story is old.

I spent 50 years working, earning, improving the world, and watched it get wiped out in a moment in a government sponsored felony robbery called a divorce.

In a massively CONSERVATIVE state...

I’ll be stimulating the economy by purchasing a new stove and range hood once the stores are in full swing again.

Perhaps, but it's certainly great to see the Government hand out taxpayers cash to the American people for a change. And I'll be helping to stimulate the economy when I replace my 25 yr old stove!....I suspect there will be good bargains to be had!
