Please post here when you receive your stimulus check..

Okay, if you say so.

It is what the media has been reporting. I am just relaying what I read. I don't make up the rules.

"I have read it will progress by that [last] number, mine is a 9 so expect to be at the end of direct deposits even though I filed very early like you."
My last number is very high, but my first number is "0" -- so maybe by that?

BTW, many moons ago the IRS looked only at the first number on a tax return. Since I prepared the taxes, I listed myself first. DH filed estimated taxes. The IRS did not connect the two, so we were in deep doo-doo until we clarified with them. He learned to list both numbers on his estimated filings. Hopefully the IRS has updated its system processes by now.

Just out of curiosity, what is the last digit of your SSN, a low number?

I have read it will progress by that number, mine is a 9 so expect to be at the end of direct deposits even though I filed very early like you.

If that were the case, would a 0 be a high or low number?

Mathematically 0 will be the lowest number.

Well, we are taking about the government here.
From there point of view, with 0 to the right side of the keyboard they could consider it the highest number.

I'm confused about that. I'd heard somewhere that you could do that if you were on Social Security and didn't file taxes, therefore had no direct deposit set up. She did file 2018, but didn't put direct deposit on. Our 2019 taxes haven't been filed yet, but for 2019 she did request direct deposit.

I think you are mixing apple's and oranges. Very few people receive an actual check for social security, so direct deposit info is available, even if tax return has not been filed.

 

[b2bailey]

Okay, regarding the date of April 15. Does that only apply to people who have direct deposit info on file for tax refund? Or does it include social security recipients who have direct deposit?

I am only reporting what I've heard elsewhere. A woman on another message board I post on said she receives Social Security but doesn't file taxes. I didn't ask her why or for more information. She had a question initially about whether she'd get a stimulus check and how she'd go about it. I didn't follow the entire conversation since it didn't apply to my situation.

And in EBCDIC as well.

I did not pay attention to those on SS only who didn't file taxes. I paid attention to the other folks who did not have Direct Deposit info in the 2018 and 2019 because they either owed taxes or paid no taxes, like my son. Stimulus money is supposed to be deposited into the account by April 15 of those who have direct deposit information on file from 2018 and 2019 returns. Again, I am talking about non-SS adults. So if you believe you should be eligible to receive but don't see the money deposited into your bank account by April 15, use the link I posted above and the greyed out button should become active shortly after April 15 for you to put in your information.

FYI...We. did not file 2019 taxes yet. We are both on SS....$2400 was added to our bank account; pending April 15...

Were your 2018 taxes filed with direct deposit information?

 

[Carta]

dioxide45, Yes taxes were filed direct deposit 2018

 

[Goldi]

I see this pending in our checking account as of 4/13/2020:
Pending IRS TREAS 310 - TAX REF $2400
We haven't filed our 2019 tax return yet. 2018 was filed electronic and direct deposit. Pending deposit is going into the same account as tax refund. Didn't go into the bank account that receives SS check.
Husband is on SS.
SS ending in 0 and 2

Considering SS is taxable (first 85% at least), how can she not be filing a tax return? She may get everything back but she still has to file the return.

You can have the full SS check without tax withholding. Also, for those in the lowest income bracket, only 50% is taxable but after standard deduction, there is no tax being owed. So if this woman asked for no tax withholding and her total income is so low that she would not have been taxed anyway, she does not need to file a tax return.

As I said, I didn't ask her any questions.

 

[JohnPaul]

You don’t have to file if your income is low enough.

However, if the IRS or state thinks you do the only way to prove you don’t is to file a return.

 

[rickandcindy23]

We have the money pending deposit into our account, $2,400. It has a date of 4/15, so it's pending.

 

[jojo777]

I have a friend at the bank she told me my check in pending for Wednesday (4) is the last number of my social.

 

[Luanne]

I didn't think dh and I were going to get a stimulus check. But I just used a calculator posted somewhere and it looks like we might. Nothing has appeared yet, but I'll keep checking.

You can go to your 2019 tax return to see what it says as your AGI, if you have submitted and if you haven't, look at the 2018 tax return. We use Turbo Tax and there is a one page summary on the first page which shows AGI. Unfortunately we had to amend our 2017 and 2018 tax returns while we were doing the 2019 taxes and realized we missed a whole chunk of capital gains reporting for both years... and we wrote a couple of large checks. That pushed our 2018 AGI over the $198K amount. We sent 2019 returns in around the time as the stimulus bill being passed so that AGI might not have been used. Best case scenario we get some money, worst case scenario we get nothing.

We haven't filed yet for 2019 so I did use the 2018 figures.
