Nothing yet in the mail or direct deposit.
Cheers!

IRS “get my payment” site showing paid on April 30, but not showing up in the bank. Anyone else have the same problem?
We were one of the zero refund/owed group who successfully entered our information on Sat. April 25. The IRS site now shows that we are scheduled for a DD on May 6.
Last night the updated info indicated a direct deposit will be made May 6th.About 30 minutes ago, I went to the IRS website and was finally able to get to the screen that said we were eligible and asked questions about direct deposit.
We filed our 2018 return (got a refund and had the refund direct deposited in our checking account). We had also filed our 2019 return, but owed money (had them take it from the same checking account).
I assumed since we had a direct deposit in 2018, they would send it automatically. That wasn't the case. I filled in the info they requested and it was a success. Not sure how long it will take to receive the money, but at least I was able to get that done.
Interesting, the IRS site does not recognize my Social Security number. I wonder if someone (a scammer, that is) filed my tax return for me?

Unfortunately that could be what's happened. Check out this IRS link: https://www.irs.gov/newsroom/taxpayer-guide-to-identity-theft
Paper checks showed up in the mail yesterday. Two $1200 checks to wards who had died at the beginning of 2019 and a $1200 check to another ward who is a minor of 13 years old.
I'll of course be sending them back, but I cannot imagine how many undeserving people are receiving these checks and not saying anything.
At the rate the gov't is handing out $$$, I want to get my share before they run out
I heard on the radio today that people are getting checks made out to 'Joe Blow, deceased' and somehow they are able to cash them. Makes no sense to me, but that's what I heard.
