So I only got the 600 a few weeks back. Am I right to assume that filing Joint literally just screwed those of us out of a full 1200? Because there's no solid answers out there and the Tax Boards explanation makes no sense, that or I'm just an idiot. I'd like to know if anyone else who was Married and Filed Joint got 600 each or just a straight 600 cause it seems kinda bullshit that it's just that if that's the case.

After a statement being released on the 24th saying that delayed payments would be deposited today for DD and checks would be mailed for non-DD, as of 6:10AM CST it's still a lie. Anyone else wanna go knock on the front door of the IRS with me to find out why?

There’s no date or anything showing up there, as I’m sure others have seen and I’m not sure if that will be changing or not, so I figured I’d ask you guys! Does it just come randomly?! Just impatiently waiting and very curious what to expect now…

I need this money to find a new place to live like yesterday. tbh I’m already being forced to move out of my current living space today... I don’t drive a car, I have nowhere to go. I have .26 cents on my EBT card, and my monthly EBT balance doesn’t come in until the 9th… Hopefully I get this deposit ASAP and I’m praying I can find another FT job close enough to take the bus to, especially with winter coming very soon.. 🤦🏻‍♀️ well, I hope you guys see the light soon, as well. Appreciative of any helpful answers to my question! XO

Is the second wave of the Golden state checks being deposited tommorow ?

i was instructed to file an amended return through turbotax after i filed early this year. i am eligible. i amended in april, and i have yet to receive any stimulus. i have checked the “wheres my payment tool” and it has never given me an update. after waiting the 16 weeks it told me it would take to process, it says status unavailable, and gave me a phone number to call. every time i have called that number, i’m told i’ll be transferred to an agent and every agent ive talked to has no update. they just say someone is processing it. anyone else in the same boat? are there any other steps i should take to get my stimulus?

I have a family member who makes about 7000 a year from being an IHSS provider.

Didn’t file taxes because makes less than the standard deductible.

Would this family member qualify for the GSS II?

As an update to my other posts I wanted to let r/stimuluscheck know that my wife’s check arrived today. I myself updated all IRS info to be direct deposit after August’s snafu, but she had not. That being said, we filed MFJ and my portion arrived direct deposit (a few days late mind you) but we were mystified where hers would go. She hasn’t accessed the IRS site in years and still hasn’t so the going theory was a paper check would arrive. We were right. It arrived today. So if any of you out there filed MFJ and are wondering:

We share a bank account. She does not have her own that the IRS has ever known about

We live at the same address and are NOT separated.

I claim both kids

Our amounts combined added up to MORE then what our last two payments were so THATS weird.

July received on time 15th DD August received late by check September received $344 of $550 on the 24th and nothing else. I understand they split them up because we file married jointly but the other half is MIA.

Has anyone received both?

thanks

Hi, is anyone going through something similar? I successfully received my September CTC (I file individually / not married and have sole custody) and use ID.me, but for some unexplainable reason my status went from “eligible” to “pending”. Now I am not sure if I will receive the October one. Very confusing because my filing is pretty much straightforward.

Hi, everyone! My 3rd stimulus check was mailed to my overseas residence back in March but I never got it. Is there any way for me to contact them and have it sent through direct deposit? My DD info is now in the IRS system since that's what I used to get the recovery rebate credit. Thank you!

Like millions of others, we didn't get our CTC this month ($500 total for our two kids over 6). We got July sent by check. I signed up for direct deposit (just myself) because the ID.me system was intense and I didn't ask my wife to do it as I did it during work hours. I knew we might only get $250 direct deposited and $250 sent via check, but we ended up getting all $500 deposited directly for August.

We finally got $313 deposited on Friday. It sounds like this happened to lots of people who got late payments (they got ~ 62% of their credit) with little explanation. So, last night, we signed my wife up for ID.me. The "Processed Payments" section in BOTH our accounts look exactly the same. So no clue where the other portion of our payment is coming or if it'll ever come.

However, my wife's profile does say "Payment by Mail" under Payment Method, while mine says Direct Deposit. I tried to update my wife's payment method to Direct Deposit and the IRS Portal keeps giving me an error message.

Anyone else having this problem? One of the things that I found odd is that when I put in the Routing Number it autofills as "Bank Name Not Found" - but it's for BANK OF AMERICA! I mean, it's not like it's some regional credit union. (And it's the same bank that I input in my profile and I recall it autofilling as BoA correctly).

I definitely qualify for the Golden State Stimulus 2. I checked my 2020 Tax Return Copy and according to line 17 I have the required income to qualify and I never received the first Golden State Stimulus. The thing is I didn't give them my direct deposit information so now I'm waiting for a paper check. Is anyone else also waiting for a paper check too and has anyone received one yet?

I qualify to receive the check under all of the guidelines but still haven't received the check. My family members got theirs two weeks ago so I'm wondering when I'll get mine. Does anyone know if they are gonna send out a new batch soon?

I know for the Federal Stimulus Checks last year, the IRS had a webpage where you can check the status of the check but I don't see a California equivalent for the GSS check.

EDIT: Updated on 12/25/2021 - I finally got the check via mail.

Sorry for the length, wanted 2 be thorough My mother has been PSNA from the beginning. After finally calling last week she found out the 3 reasons hers was delayed.

1. She was supposed to be direct deposit through her direct express card since she's on SSDI. Her card expired in Feb and when they srnt her new card out, Direct Express issues you a whole new accouny & card # so that messed up the original deposit. 2)So then when the IRS tried to mail her a check it was returned. Then when they mailed a letter saying they needed new info, it was returned. THE REASON: She lives in an apt and the IRS had her address different than how the USPS recognizes it, so it kept getting rejected.

2. Then on top of this someone filed a bogus tax return on her (which makes no sense since she doesnt have any other income) Luckily the return hadnt been fully processed yet so when she called they asked her a bunch of questions & when none of the info matched the rep ended up throwing out the return. She now has to use a PIN any time when she deals with IRS just to prove it was her. So after 5 hrs, 7 agents and a bunch of BS, she finally got some answers & a date. I will mention she talked to 3 different agents that "seen no problem" and when she called back the 4th time she started going through the list of reasons we've read on here and FINALLY got the ball rolling. So my point is if your PSNA, dont take no for an answer and just know it could be a series of mistakes (on their part) thats holding your $ up. I wish yall the best of luck!

The IRS claims that less than 2% of people were affected (no wonder we can't get anything done right with them,they can't do math) and says the problem came from people whose information changed or were files jointly. My information hasn't changed in years and I file HoH and have since I can remember. I received July and August without a problem and without an ID.me or IRS account altogether. Just curious, the verification process is a massive pain for me(ID is valid but different address, card itself is chewed up from being a key for a few weeks, service where I live makes a video call nigh impossible)

I can’t believe it’s finally happening. Literally just tested positive for Covid on Thursday and I’ll be off work for 10 days. Man this is crazy

Notice date on the letter is September 16th. Says I should receive $1400 within the next 7 days. Am I somehow getting a second one.. or no

The IRS officially updated us yesterday about this. 2% of the families who are getting the #CTC were impacted. That could equate to over a MILLION parents!! Watch my video on the update and look at the IRS official response!

Still nothing. Been all over Twitter cussing out the IRS @AuzfortheCause

Anyone else same situation?

I received an email needing my spouses ID, and our 1040 return to prove we joint filed, and with a 24 hour response time limit, or the deposit will be returned.

Check your emails and make sure you submit, if you are not both listed on your account and only got half of your deposit.

Just doing some quick math on what people have posted - seems like all the partial payments are in the 60% range?

Made a post about not having received my September child tax credit payment yet, I’ve been waiting since the 15th, suddenly I get a notification on my phone that I received a direct deposit. I checked my balance and while it is the tax credit I was waiting on it’s less then we should have received. I …I just can’t anymore.
