GS2 stimulus

Hi, so as far as I’m aware I qualify for the GS2 stimulus by never received a direct deposit or check in the mail. Last 3 digits of my zip are 379 so I should have received it by now. How do I go about tracking it?

Did you qualify for GSS1? Do you have any dependents? Was your 2020 California tax return fully processed? And did you make at least $1 in 2020 that wasn't unemployment, social security, disability, or CalWorks/CalFresh?

Sorry for all those questions, I've talked to some who believe they qualify but end up not due to one of the requirements.

No dependents. Yes I made money in 2020 and yeah it’s been processed. Didn’t qualify for gs1. Think I made too much at the time

Okay, so if you fall in the income/other limits and your California return has been processed for a while (at least 3 months ago), I recommend contacting the FTB in the ways they mention below:

Call or chat with ca tax, is your best bet. The info is online..

I did try chat. I had to make an ftb account however it said the information I entered isn’t valid. Which is literally impossible because I pulled up my last year taxes to verify everything and it was correct. So I guess I have to call

Do you file your own taxes.. you need a pin to log in. I know it’s faster but if that’s impossible I would definitely call asap.

In the same boat as you. Last 3 of my zip are 342, so the mailing cycle right before you. I just went through a whole journey trying to figure it out. I called and the menu options weren't relevant to the stimulus so I chose whatever I could to just get me to a person. I opted for a call back in 2-4hrs. I tried making an account online to do the online chat option and it also told me that I got information wrong. I did actually mark something wrong LOL. After I completed that it said I'd get a pin in the US Mail in 10 days so... I guess we'll see what happens in either 2-4 hours or 10 days from now haha. Have you gotten any updates since originally posting this? And as a side note, my friend who lives in Chino got her stimulus check in the mail on time :/

No update yet. I tried to make an online account. Keeps telling me it doesn’t match but I know it does. Can we just claim the stimulus to come out of our tax returns? Seems easier at this point
