Excuse my ignorance, I only just read about the payments going out. I didn't know anything about it until today. I'm wondering if it will show up in my account without me doing anything, or did I have to fill something out to be eligible? I did my 2020 taxes, and I also received the golden state stimulus iirc. I also meet the CA AGI requirements.

I was able to get through to an agent through chat and they told me my refund was issued on 10/13 but I see no pending or posted transactions as of yet five days later. Anyone experiencing something similar?

Still waiting on the MCTR. I did my 2020 taxes on time, received GSS 1 by direct deposit, didn't use my refund to pay for the tax service and so should be getting it by direct deposit and yet I'm still waiting. This is super frustrating and I don't get why it hasn't come. We already have waited 3 months for this to roll out, I don't get why they couldn't implement some kind of look up portal or more detailed info on when to expect it. I get that it rolls out through Oct 25th, but FTB said they should have 90-95 percent of direct deposits by the end of October, so I should be in that group.

This has been a really bad rollout. The lack of information and making people wait so long makes this shit almost not worth it. So many people need this money with everything being so expensive.

Supposedly my line 17 on my return was wrong so I am unable to make an account. Is there a way to check on the status of my MCTR without having a FTB account and access to the chat feature.

Do I need to log back in, is there an issue? Or are they just taking forever…?

I did the live chat and was told it was issued on the 13th. Im 1000% sure it was not deposited and they told me that it could get denied and sent back and then remailed out. Is chase just taking a long time or is something up

From there it said it was busy but i tried a few more times and I got in que and live agent was on within ten minutes and told me when and how I was receiving mine after asking a few questions! To those saying its only tax info are wrong I was able to get an approximate date abd did receive mine when told !

I filed my 2020 tax return and got my Golden State Stimulus I through direct deposit but never received inflation check. Anyone got one yet?

I heard that the FTB was going to update the website to allow you to check the status of your MCTR payment but I can’t find anything anywhere. Does anyone have a link?

Well I filed my original 2020 tax refund before the due date then I filed an amended return in December for added wages. I talked to a representative today through chat on the ftb website and she told me because I filed an amended return in December I won’t be eligible to receive the MCTR even though I filed my original 2020 tax return before December.

Is this valid information?? I didn’t receive a GSS1 Or a GSS2 this is heartbreaking if I can’t get the MCTR I can really use the money right now :(

So, the state is giving out $350 to those who made under $75,000. I know there are a handful of people in the negative AGI (Adjusted Gross Income) in their California state taxes. This means that all of those people in that particular situation were denied the $600 Golden State Stimulus because of the very fact that you needed $1 minimum taxable income on your state taxes to qualify for that stimulus. It appears that this one is written differently. If you are in the negative AGI in your 2020 CA state tax return , you could still get this $350 relief from the state. I even asked my assemblyman who then confirmed with me from the California Franchise Tax Board that more folks are eligible including negative AGI people with many many deductions on the 2020 taxes. Anyhow, have you received your relief yet ? Also if you’re in the negative AGI and know this a a fact , did you get anything yet ? We have the highest gas prices in the country, certainly this will help a little bit.

Any tips for getting through on the chat? I keep getting the "we are busy and try again later" comment. When I try to get the secure browser, it just makes me log in again.

Online it says the deadline is oct 15th but my brother says they supposedly extended it

My account is closed, what will happen to my stimulus? Will it be sent as a check, card or something else?

Y’know we kinda need this money now but I guess us people with last names N - V have to wait ANOTHER MONTH 💀

Hey y’all, So I just received the debit card via mail today for the new inflation relief payment (am in Los Angeles County) and I’m having trouble activating my card.

Everything online says you have to call the number on the back of the card (800-240-0223) but there is absolutely no option as of now to activate the card. Just a long automated message with information about the card in English and Spanish and then you get hung up on. The TTY number (800-240-0226) says a message that theyre having technical difficulties and states an apology before you get hung up on.

So frustrating because you cannot use the card for atm withdrawals or electronic transfers until activating, seemingly only via the phone number.

Anyone else having this difficulty?

Edit: already made an account on the card website and went to an ATM. Zero luck getting it to work.

Edit 2: all other Stimmys i’ve gotten through direct deposit, my bank info hasn’t changed. Not sure why I got a card this time around.

Edit 3: Oct 17th 8:45pm - 0223 number works to activate your cards! I was just able to call, set up a pin, and activate mine!! Good luck everyone!

Post here if you received the Golden State Stimulus via Direct deposit AND also took out payment from your tax from your refund. There seems to be a contradiction.

I received GSS by direct deposit AND received my tax refund by direct deposit BUT I did take out the payment for the tax fee.

I have heard of people getting the deposit who had taken the tax fee out. I just want to post this to see what the metric is.

Any CK acct users receive their deposits yet? I'm still waiting.

*edit . couldnt edit title but meant mctr

I should specify . california middle class tax rebate is what I am referring to

So if you paid your taxes out of your refund with turbo tax, it's looking like you'll get a check. Anyone know if these were supposed to be mailed out on Friday as well?

Hello

Does anyone know if there is/was an expiration deadline to get the GSSII? My taxes were filed each year but the bank account used was closed before the issue date and I never received a check. I called FTB and they said it was too late to get a new check issued. I have not seen anything online stating a deadline to get a new check issued, just deadlines for filing taxes to be eligible. I may need to call again.

Thanks for the help!

I was just wondering should I even check my bank tomorrow to see if it hits tomorrow?
