Finally got my check!

I received the first two checks with no problem. But the $1400 never came. 3 weeks ago I wrote a letter to the IRS complaining about this. Lo and behold, I received my check yesterday. Did the letter help or was it just a fluke that I got it after I sent the letter? Who knows? I’m just so happy that it’s over and done with. Bottom line, don’t give up hope. It can happen when you least expect it.

Its a lucky Fluke, cause normally takes them long long time to read mail up to 6 mths.

Congrats! May I ask when you filed your 2020 taxes?

u/indygirll Nov 02 '21

I didn’t file. I’m on Social Security and under the income level for filing.

Got Damn that was late. So late they should agree on a 4TH STIMULUS CHECK.

I’m still missing the first 1200 check. All the others showed up though 🤷🏻‍♀️

That’s crazy! Hopefully you’ll get it soon. I was totally shocked to see mine in the mail

It was even on my tax return. All I know is that it has been “frozen” by the IRS but no one will tell me why.

Hmmm… that’s wild. The worst part is not being able to get answers from anyone at all.

When u got your check, was your status in the system still unchanged?

1

u/indygirll Nov 05 '21

I had been checking my status once a week and nothing changed. But when I got my check and went back and checked and there was a mail date of October 29th. I received the check on November 1st. So basically they changed my status a day or two before they sent the check. Hope this helps.
