Hi,

I wonder if I'm the only one, but I was in the first group of those that should have received their stimulus check first (last 2 digits of SS# is 07).

In 2007 I owed Federal taxes and paid via EFT. Does that have something to do with me not receiving my stimulus payment thru direct deposit do you think? I'm definitely due one because I did the calculations and according to my 2007 fed taxes, I should receive $600.00 so what gives?

I thought maybe it would show up in my checking acct. today, but still nothing and I know others have received theirs.

Thanks!!

I am in the same boat. Last 2 digits are 08 and my husbands is 01 and we haven't recieved anything yet. We filed through Turbo Tax and while searching online I found that if you filed through Turbo Tax you will be getting a paper check EVEN if you received your tax refund through direct deposit.

So if any of you filed through Turbo Tax you most likely will be getting a paper check sent out may 16. You can also find out by going onto irs.gov and clicking on " Where's my stimulus refund?" thats how I found out I was getting a check and not direct deposit.

Wow that really blows!

I had to pay extra for Turbo Tax to direct deposit my refund and now this?

HEY I just got through to the IRS today because I too was supposed to get mine deposited this week and it didn't come. This is what I found out...

If you e-filed your taxes and used a company like HR Block, TaxAct, Turbo Tax etc the IRS will have to mail you your check because the company that filed your taxes used THEIR account number and when they received your tax check they forwarded it to you (hence the extra charges). So that is considered a third party account and the IRS will not deposit the rebates into those accounts so they are mailing the rebates to the address listed on your tax return. Hope this helps everyone!! I kno I have spent three days on the phone and about 6 hours on hold to get that info!! Hope I saved some the stress!!!
