I think they are spreading out the checks based on the last two digits of your SS number. Mine ends with 91 so they will probably drop it in the mail after they lock the door and turn out the lights! Sometime in July, I think. They may not have sent yours out yet either.

If you're someone's dependent, you don't get the stimulus check.

Do you get a refund if you are not a citizen? As in, someone from overseas here with a green card, working and paying taxes.

Re: Regarding the "tax stimulus" refund....


This is the payment schedule on the IRS web site:

Stimulus Payment Schedule for Tax Returns Processed by April 15

We filed jointly using Direct Deposit.

I don't know why we didn't get our check by close of business on May 19th at the latest.

The IRS provides a phone number 1-866-234-2942 for questions about your payment, however, it is strictly an automated call. You cannot get through to a real person.

It's looking like we may have to wait until June. I don't have any idea why we would have to wait for a check in the mail. AFIK we met all the criteria for Direct Deposit.

Is there anyone else who filed jointly and used Direct Deposit who did not receive their stimulus payment yet?

I got a stimulus check as a legal resident with a green card.

Brian, if you used Turbo Tax for direct deposit, then you will get a mailed check instead of direct deposit. If you didn't then I don't know what to tell you.

I file my taxes using Turbo Tax and get both fed & state refunds directly deposited into my account. And I got a direct deposit on my stimulus rebate.

There was more to it than that. If you used Turbo Tax, AND paid the filing fee out of your refund, then you will get a paper check. Reason being is that some California bank actually acted as the go-between.

As Mike said, I also used TurboTax for Fed and State, but I paid the filing fee with my credit card, so I got my handout on May 12, just like they said.
