Please post here when you receive your stimulus check..

For the record, we've tried all caps for my sister's info, and it still gets the "Information Not Available" error.

Has ANYBODY who gets Social Security ONLY and does NOT file income taxes received their payment?

Dave
 
They can use the tool to see when the payment is scheduled. In his sisters category she can not alter the Direct Deposit nfo, but by putting in four pieces of information, you can see if the payment is scheduled to be paid out. So he can use the "get my payment" section.

He can use it, but sounds like his sister is still not being found.
 
DaveNW. I do know people in your sisters category and they started receiving payment today. Others are scheduled for the next couple of days, so that category is moving. Remember the IRS.Gov info is only updated once a day. So check tomorrow.

@DaveNW - I am just spitballing here but in light of the couple of articles I read about the changes / improvements to the IRS tool (app), I wonder if the situation you describe was somehow overlooked (meaning not properly accounted for in the logic) in the initial design of the tool (app).... Similar to those of us who filed electronically for the past two years but paid the IRS a tax due, our info was not able to be added until (at least) one app fix was rolled out.

And I wonder if the IRS has some idea of each taxpayers AGI so that they can 'release' X number of cases in a period so their info can be added/fixed/modified.
Remember paper checks are going to be mailed to those with the lowest AGI's first then work up (in AGI) until all eligible have been mailed a check. Might the accounts eligible to have DD info added be a similar pattern of 'release'?

Dave, to answer your question, my parents do not have to file taxes and are still waiting. I just put in their info again today on the IRS website and it said they will receive it by DD on Wednesday. So they are happy!

Ok, thanks! If the payments have started for this category, then Sis should be getting something soon. She's among the lowest-amount recipients for SSA benefits, so I'd expect her to be among the first to get the Stimulus money.

My son is still getting the payment info not available or whatever that is called. Mine now says I will be getting paid on Apr 30th.

Don't go hog wild.
One rule of thumb for "bonus" money: 1/3 to savings, 1/3 to debts (if any) & 1/3 to buy toys."""
That said, we'll dine out at local restaurants much more than usual, when they reopen.

You, obviously, do not understand the difference between "stimulus money" (spend it as soon as possible on whatever) and "bonus money" (whatever that is supposed to mean).

"Stimulus money" is entirely intended to go "hog wild" and spend it all Now!
 
Update:
If you want to find out when your check will be deposited but you street address in all CAPS. Now if finally know when I will get my check.
This system is set up in COBL. Also my sister was putting in XXX-XX-XXXX for her SS number , when she finally put it in this way XXXXXXXXX. It worked.
I re-did mine the same way and it worked. Below is what I found out about the system. Hope it helps.


Government systems across the country have been plagued with issues as they are bombarded by users during the pandemic. Some states announced that they were desperately in need of programmers versed in COBOL. This early programming language is in demand not only due to the number of essential systems running on it, but also because many of those who know it are of retirement age. The IRS’s systems also run on the antiquated programming language.

This system is set up in COBLS( i believe that's how you spell it).
Good luck!!

My address is in proper case so I don't think it matters.
 
The most significant take away from the article Richard posted above is this:

...— In an update posted Sunday, the IRS said that if you have successfully entered your bank information “any day until noon on Tuesday, your payment date will be available beginning the following Saturday.” If you miss the Tuesday deadline, you have to wait another week to get a payment date. Or, if your payment has already been processed, you’ll get a check that could take up to 14 days to receive....

Sorry to single you out... But this is an example of an unnecessary counter post.
 
Entered our bank information last week. Still getting the "You are eligible for payment" with no date.
 
So today I tried all caps. Using my SSN, for the first time I got a messages saying "you are eligible". Then I entered my 2019 info and it told me perhaps my return isn't in the system. Same issue using 2018 information. But happy to see the "eligible" note. Now it's time to bug my accountant regarding when she actually forwarded our return because my note says we returned it 3/25 and it's been way too long under normal circumstances for the state to cough up a refund check.
 
After the latest glitch was fixed dd was finally able to get in and add her information. She got the response that she will get a check mailed beginning May.

Me too, supposedly Apr 30. I have no use for the stimulus check, I am retired and make ($0) the same amount of money I made before the pandemic. I have less expenses too since I am not travelling.

We are in the same position. But we've been donating so a lot of the money is going in that direction. Also we're not getting the full amount.

We did the same thing applied our refund to next year taxes.

I haven't checked to see if you finally got signed up, but finally we have made progress. Bugged our accountant about our state refund ("did our taxes indeed get filed, and are they backed up?" -- answer yes & yes), and then mentioned couldn't get stimulus input to go through. The trick was to answer yes to "did you get a refund" but to enter zero for the amount since it was carried forward to next year's taxes. And 2019 information didn't work for us, 2018 info did the trick (and is low enough we get the full $1200 unless they'll look at 2019 before handing out money willy nilly).

You can either make it charity begins at home by buying stuff for yourself or spend it to help local businesses or charities. For us, we have spent half of the money buying hydroponic systems to grow our own food.
 
We'll buy an oximeter to go in our new "next time" box. And a box of masks, along with a box of gloves and some paper towels. Already have a six pack of TP, a tub of wipes, brand new thermometer, and a bottle of hand sanitizer in the Pandemic Box. Then we can give extra money to a pet rescue which collects (mostly) dogs from the forest and desert scrub areas after they are "set free" by idiots. They then keep the pets for life -- no adoptions. And I'll fund my HSA, take the money right back out because last year's bills will wipe it out, and get up to date on prepaid 2020 taxes.

We've been doing take out several times a week, gift certificates to local businesses, outright donations. Dh always has a vegetable garden, it's just too early in the year for him to start it.
