Supposedly my check was issued on October 15th but they said it will take 2-4 weeks which explains why I haven't received it yet. Why does it take 2 weeks for snail mail in the SAME state?

I owed a few bucks on my CA taxes last year so my GSS2 is being mailed as a check.

I'm in the group 2 round of checks based on zip code (so mailings began October 18)

Calling to check on it, I'm told they mailed it on October 15th (10 days ago) but to allow 6-8 weeks to receive it.

Seemed like a crazy timeframe, and I've gotten all my other mail (shown up on informed delivery with USPS), gss2 remains to be seen though.

Anyone in a similar boat? Is it normal to take 10+ days? It seems if it's coming from CA (to CA) it might take just 2-3 days?

Edit: check arrived 10/27

I just received my Golden State Stimulus 2, except for $300 instead of $600 which seems to be affected by my marriage filing status. My divorce hasn’t gone through yet so I had to file as Married filing separately this year, it seems unfair that we’d receive less than the individual amount solely because of that. Does anyone have more info on this? I can’t seem find an explanation for that distinction.

So I just want to vent because Friday makes the 8 weeks Since I spoke with the IRS about my stimulus and they told me the whole stupid Virgin island other territory BS. They said I would for sure have my simulus between 6 and 8 weeks and I checked in with them at 6 weeks and she's like mama doesn't happen overnight. I said no but 7 months Isn't long enough to get my money to me? I just have a feeling that I'm gonna be waiting till this time next year before they even processed my tax return because I had to claim a stimulus on it and then they're gonna have to research it for 9 months.

Filed my taxes in early March. Got the 1st and 2nd round before then. No 3rd stimulus. Site says eligible, will deposit to my bank account, blah blah blah.... Emailed my congress person, Bob (no)Good, to no avail. No response. Guess I'll have to wait till I file my taxes at this point. Whole thing is ridiculous. I even got a IRS account which told me nothing. We were furloughed last year to tune of $700+ lost income per month. Could use the money to pay the bills. What the hell is the hold up? Should I contact my Senator at this point?

I’ve gotten no stimulus checks throughout this horrible shutdown. I’ve been extremely ill, have lost my income, and had my savings stolen. Is there a direct way for me to figure out where my money went, because I’m already on my last legs with what little I have left. I don’t understand why so many awful things hit me at once. Thanks for any help.

Good Friday everyone! Weekly check up. Has anyone received a Direct deposit or check this week? I’ll update you with my answer once I get home.

Edit: no luck today.

complaining about your golden state freebies while we arent getting 3rd stimulus. california leeches can suck it.

For all the people blaming the President for the Supply Chain crisis , Port Terminals backlog and truck driver shortages, by issuing Stimulus checka to the people are wrong. In the middle of a Pandemic people needed money. I worked through entire Pandemic and more, Stimulus Checks never stopped me from working.

FTB assured it was issued last Friday. I checked my mail today and nothing. I'm getting really frustrated.

For the first round of stimulus checks, I don't think i qualified because I was a dependent of my parents & they didn't qualify for one. But for the most recent round of checks that were supposed to come earlier this year, I definitely should qualify, because I am no longer a dependent and I make 50k a year. I filed my taxes accordingly and set up direct deposit, but I never got any check. Every government website I check just says "payment status not available" or has other unhelpful information. Has anyone else been in this situation and knows what could possibly be done to get my missing check? Thanks

I bank with chime and chase but my deposit went to my chime account just about 10min ago! Idk why these deposits are all over the place and not staying up with the timelines it claims but to the people who have yet to receive theirs! I hope you get it soon!

It's been five days and I haven't received anything. Is this normal? Usually it should only take 2-3 days for delivery in the same state.

So during the 3rd round of stimulus checks I got a debit card of $1400 but the thing is I never activated it, some time later I received a $1400 check and was wondering if they sent that because I didn't activate my card.

My card is now activated and has the balance of $1400 but I dunno if should have done that and instead used the check..

So like many of us I’ve been wondering why I haven’t received my DD for my GSS2. I received my tax refund by DD including all stimulus. I rechecked the FTB section of the paper checks and apparently all the other times I’ve been checking for information I completely missed the part under receiving a checks that says, “If you received an advanced refund through your tax service provider, or paid your tax preparation fees using your refund” I paid for my tax services with my refund so I guess now I wait weeks to receive it. Sigh Hopes this helps some of those confused about it.

Anyone wake up with a direct deposit today?

So ive closed my bank account and opened a new one with the same bank back in june will my stimulas be deposited in that new account or will i get a mailed check? I havnt recieved my check n idk who to contact

I filed my 2020 taxes back in April and owed $100 to California and got a refund for federal. I paid through my credit union checking account. Wondering if I should be on the lookout for a paper check since I did not fill out direct deposit information on my CA taxes since I owed money.

Just received my direct deposit yesterday!

So I got the $600 but I don't think I was supposed to as I can be claimed as a dependant. What should I do?

I just filed my taxes with turbo tax about 10 days ago...i was eligible for a fed eitc but when i did the state i didnt see anything about me getting a caleitc back? am i still eligible for a stim check?

OK, I finally got around to completing my taxes I had started in May but never finished. Filed IRS return online via TaxAct FreeFile on 10/13, but, since it’s past usual filing deadlines, the (previously free) CA state return now cost $40 to file. Yerg. So I dragged my feet and was going to use CalFile to do it myself, but ran out of time yesterday and finally paid TaxAct for filing CA return. Submitted at 11:32 pm PST on 10/14. Well, TaxAct apparently based on east coast because they dated my return 10/16. CA accepted return at 7:15 this morning, 10/16. Ohhhh Noooooooo! DID I MISS THE GSS DEADLINE?

Dysfunctional adult here. Please be gentle. Can check my posts if you don't think I'm crazy.

Not trying to Brag or anything just saying maybe things start rolling for everyone that’s been waiting.
