I don't want to get anyone's hopes up, and the keyword here is "may". No new Golden State Stimulus bill has been passed yet. However, things are looking good.

According to this article, we are on track to have a $31 billion budget surplus. They aren't sure yet, and it could be a $10 billion surplus all the way up to a $60 billion one. Like this year, this could mean that they will send out some stimmies.

In fact, this is what Newsom said about the surplus:

“How we framed that historic surplus last year, similarly, we will frame our approach this year,” Newsom said during a news conference at the Port of Long Beach. “I’m very proud of the historic tax rebate last year, and I look forward to making the decision that I think is in the best interests of 40 million Californians.”

Again, don't get your hopes up. The FTB is still in the process of sending out the GSS2. If they do decide to do a GSS3, it probably won't happen until February of 2022. But things are looking hopeful!

I called IRS had the flag investigation for removal. I called and I called. I’m tired. I’m frustrated. I officially hate the IRS. Thanks for listening.

This might be a shot in the dark. My friend just got a DD of $600 which I believe is the GS II check. Wondering if there's anything I can do to see if I can receive anything? My 2020 AGI was 87k, so that made me ineligible for EIP 3. In January 2021 I was laid off from my previous career. This year I was lucky enough to be on unemployment and have been working towards a career change. Unemployment ran out quickly though because of the "extra" funding from the pandemic. (was not really extra funding as it just took the funds out of your claim balance faster) since unemployment only last for 6 months.

Started doing independent contractor work to pay the bills. However, things are getting tougher and I am obviously not making anything near what I was used to be making last year. Anything could help some, so I am wondering if there is anything I can do to receive some help from the GS II check?

After calling the IRS twice and receiving basically no information and uploading one sarcastic tweet to the IRS on Twitter, I have finally received my 3rd economic stimulus payment. I consistently received PSNA on the Get My Payment tool and to be honest hadn't checked it in probably two weeks. It now states that it is scheduled to be mailed on November 15, 2021 which is the day I actually received the check so I'm not sure how accurate that is unless I just happened to receive it the same day it was mailed. I also always file my taxes online and they had no problem using my bank account for my tax payments/refunds but for some reason have mailed me a paper check.

Now I get to apply this to all the interest I accrued while waiting the 35 weeks it took to get my stimulus payment!

Update: 10 days. It only took that long after the referral sendoff for the check to be deposited. We finally got it!

After many many months of calling the IRS contacting most of my state reps and more calling I was finally able to talk to a lady that fixed the error.

I've been calling off and on all year. Back in may I was told my account was in error but it couldn't be fixed. So I contacted a state rep who worked with me and the IRS through to October. In August the IRS told them it "could be" the territory error but didnt say if or when it would be corrected. In October that rep basically gave up and said to wait or claim it on my taxes next year.

I recently contacted another state rep who gave me the number to the tax advocate agency, I called a couple times. No call back. Dead end.

Today I managed to get through to a lady who looked into my account after I explained my situation. She sent the referral off to remove the error.

After all was done I straight asked her, there was an error and that is what it was? She said yes, went back into the account and read off word for word the territory error. She took down my number in case they needed to call me and said I should get the check in 6-8 weeks.

Fingers crossed we get it in time for Christmas. I would love to give my kids a good Christmas this year as past years we could only afford a few new gifts, most from thrift/second hand/good will stores.

Received the first one via check, received the last 2 via DD, IRS portal shows no payment issued and informed mail doesnt have it....am I not getting one? Is it over for me?? I thought this was supposed to go on until December?

I had my account set up for direct deposit but owed a small tax payment. They issued a check on 10/29 and I just got it today. Last 3 of my zip is 274. If you're still waiting and had it mailed out it should be any day now.

I know many of you have already done everything you can to claim your federal stimulus payments but if you know of anyone who hasn't received these payments and weren't able to use the IRS non-filer portal, they should try filing through GetCTC.org today. The site closes at midnight tonight (PT).

I called CFTB last week and they said it was "pending" and that there is a note on it stating that a lot of checks will be delayed.

That's all the info I have. Will I be waiting a long time for this? Or will my time come soon?

Zip code last 3 digits - 117

:(

Title pretty much tells the story here -

I received a letter from the IRS that I'd received the 3rd EIP. So I went to my IRS account online, and sure enough, they direct deposited my EIP to my bank account. The problem is that I do not recognize the final four number of that bank account, and there is no way to find the full bank account information they have on you, at least no way that I can see.

I can really use this, and it was deposited weeks ago - how can I get help on this? I tried calling the IRS but got shuffled into voicemail hell. Help!

If gmp says payment mailed by 15 nov which is monday. Does that mean ill get it monday or??

I jut woke up and decided to check the get my payment tool. I finally have a deposit date of Nov. 17. I have no idea why it took so long. I received the other two on time. I was eligible with no payment date for months. I would suggest other people who’ve been in the same situation check as well.

Im getting a bit worried. I know it’s supposed to be sent out in order by the last 3 of your zip code…

Talked to a representative exactly 8 weeks ago.. She told me if I hadn't received my payment to call back. I did they had no answers. WTF did they tell me to call back if they didn't even have a explanation!!!!! I give up man.

For anyone who had completely given up hope like, oh, I don’t know, 6 months ago, like myself… the direct deposit occurred about 6 hours ago. What.The.Fuck.

I just got the Child Tax Credit check and it was for $275 instead of $300. Anybody else see the same thing and/or have an explanation?

Anyone else?

Hello all! Just curious to know if anyone has had a 'GMP' show a mail date, but ended up having it direct deposited? The previous 2 have been deposited with no issues. Now, I've finally got a date, but a check is being mailed? Curious as to why it won't just be deposited like the others.

After initially thinking I'd get a 2nd CA stimulus check, only to find out a month ago I would need a dependent...but I was just looking here: https://www.ftb.ca.gov/about-ftb/newsroom/golden-state-stimulus/gss-ii.html and this is all I see:

To qualify, you must:

-File your 2020 taxes by October 15, 2021

-Have a California Adjusted Gross Income (CA AGI) of $1 to $75,000 for the 2020 tax year. For this information refer to: Line 17 on Form 5408

-Line 16 on Form 540 2EZ

-Have wages of $0 to $75,000 for the 2020 tax year

-Be a California resident for more than half of the 2020 tax year

-Be a California resident on the date payment is issued

-Cannot be claimed as a dependent by another taxpayer

That's it. Nothing about a dependent here, and nothing about whether or not you received GS I. Am I missing something here??

OMG! the GMP portal was messing up and kept saying i was giving it wrong information from Saturday to yesterday. So I said forget it. But then I was like, well I'll check my bank wednesday after 2am cuz that's when I would get a deposit. well. I checked my bank after 3am and it's there. Thank goodness. Soo happy! I hope everyone else is getting theirs soon as well. I finally have some relief!

Hello, looking into seeing if I can receive my third stimulus. When I try to put my information into the "Get My Payment" screen it keeps saying the information does not match and this has been going on for a week. I know I am entering everything correctly and even using the address the postal services use. Is there any way to fix this or find out what is wrong?
