This is what I have gotten every single time I have gone to the Get My Payment site

If you aren't eligible then just say so.

That's what mine said when the first batch of stimulus's went out a week or so ago. Then I got a $700 deposit when the second batch came out yesterday. Went back to the website to check and it changed.

Do you see what it says in the middle of the page:
"You're not eligible for a payment."

It is given as a possible reason.
What I am saying is if I'm not eligible then just say You're not eligible loser. Instead of the either not enough info or you're not eligible.

I got some money the first two times (not the full amount) and the website gave me the exact same response those times as well.

I am sure it is just to save their time. Could you imagine the number of emails/calls they would get if you say directly someone is not eligible but they thought they were? It is the easy way out, but I would do the same thing. Especially knowing how many ways software can go wrong.

This latest payment had already been deposited before I had done our taxes. Our daughter was born last year so I figured I'd be waiting until filing taxes next year to get the stimulus payment for her since they had already processed our stimulus. I was surprised when I checked the bank statement to see they deposited the payment for her last Friday.

Mine was set to be mailed march 26 and I actually received it on the 25th.

Last time around though I got it about a week after they date they said it would be sent.

I think the 26th is just a placeholder for "we'll be writing you a check, its in the queue for the check-printer"

Not exactly sure.

Will say everything I mail to MN takes 1-2 weeks longer. I mailed bills to MN, Dallas, Detroit, and a few other places and the others all cleared over a week ago. The MN one just hit today.

Kinda weird but we have collect our stimulus checks for ourselves and our two kids. Our oldest did his taxes this as he is no longer a student. He didn’t get the first two stimulus checks but when he did his taxes he did.

Today, he gets something from the IRS. It is a stimulus check for $1,400. So he basically got two checks. One that went to our account since he was on our 2019 tax return and the one he got today. So..... do we keep both or give one back? Not sure what we should do here.

According to the law you get to keep it.

There are a LOT of double stimulus payments.

And yet there are probably millions of us still waiting to get just the single payment. We are retired, easily qualified, but still nothing. The way this thread has stalled, I guess interest has waned. I know I gave up checking the Get My Payment site. I had to claim the 2nd stimulus on my taxes recently in order to get it. So, waiting on that refund also.

We got a paper check on Saturday without ever being able to get a status update, so don't give up hope.
