They are suppose to start sending them out. I don't know if it's based on specific criteria, but everyone I know has direct deposit and already filed taxes and still nothing.

EDIT:

This is IRS website where you confirm you are getting a check and where it's going to be deposited. Required info is SS Number, Birthday, and street address.

https://www.irs.gov/coronavirus/get-my-payment

_____________________________________________________________________________________________

Add this to the OP: https://www.irs.gov/coronavirus/economic-impact-payments

This includes a separate portal that will be available soon for the following items:

  • Check your payment status
  • Confirm your payment type: direct deposit or check
  • Enter your bank account information for direct deposit if we don't have your direct deposit information and we haven't sent your payment yet

This guy is lowkey hilarious, and hes not trying to be. -- however --

Some companies that did your taxes are pre-paying them and hoping that the govt repays them. This is for some people.

This is 24 hours old, so, take of it what you will.

But I like this guy.

Have they even actually started going out? I thought it was pushed back from last week to this current week...which I fully expect will be pushed back again.

So to answer: no, haven't gotten it.

We owed in both 2018 and 2019 so they don't even have direct deposit for us. I ain't getting anything till like September (if it comes at all, which I have my doubts about). Still absolutely nothing from unemployment either.

If you paid with your bank by direct withdrawal, the IRS has your info where to send it to.

I thought if you paid via DD even if you owed, they still have your DD info to be able to deposit into your account?

The payment is going to be sent to the latest bank information on file. So, if you filed your 2018 return and not your 2019 return, it will go to the bank account you listed on your 2018 return. If you filed your 2019 return, it will go to the bank account you listed on your 2019 return. If you did not provide a bank account with either return, or the payment fails to go through, you'll get a check mailed to the address on whatever is the address on your latest return. This applies whether you authorized the IRS to directly deposit a refund into your account or make a withdrawal to pay for income taxes owed.

At first I was like "eh" then as the video went on, he started having a mini-meltdown and I just lost it by the end. Holy hell I might subscribe to his channel because he is hilarious how frustrated he gets.

1-140 poll lol. Guess we'll get it Tuesday night/Wednesday morning. Hopefully. There's always that little voice in the back of your head that says "What if I don't qualify due to X?"

Yeah, my bank won't show anything pending until the night before it posts.

Lots are saying they can see theirs, though.

Must be nice.

I owed money the last two years and paid, but I'm pretty sure I didn't give my bank account info.
You'd think they'd know anyway. I had to give them my Social Security number when I started the account.

I finished filing my 2019 taxes on Apr 8th. Does this mean they will use my 2018 or 2019 return?

I'm not even sure if I'm getting one. Made about a hair over $100k before taxes last year but I don't know if the cutoff is for net income.

Nope. Not yet. I'm not even sure if I'm going to get it at all. The tool I used said I was "likely" to but who knows if they'll find an excuse not to.

Not quite. It's been pending in my bank account since Friday. The bank needs to clear it. It'll be tomorrow. Then straight into savings.

Thresholds & Income Cutoffs
  1. The advance refundable credit is for tax year ending 2020-12, but will be based upon your AGI from 2018-12 or 2019-12, whichever you've filed. For 2018, this is Form 1040 line 7. For 2019, this is Form 1040 line 8b. If you did not file in 2018 or 2019, you will not get this now. If you did not file in 2018 or 2019, but plan to file in 2020, you will get it when you file your 2020 return (next year, in 2021).

  2. If you do not typically file a tax return because you are under the income threshold, you can enter your information here to receive the refund. Do not fill this out if you get Social Security or SSDI. Your refund will be automatically deposited to your account.

  3. This $1,200/$2,400/etc phases out at 5% of your AGI over the following limitations:
    a. >$150,000 for married filing joint
    b. >$112,500 for head of household
    c. >$75,000 for people who are not in a) or b).
    So, for someone filing single, the credit is totally phased out at $99,000 ((1,200/0.05)+75,000=99,000).
    It reduces the credit by $5 for every $100 over the threshold above.
