Okay, the site does not work for me either. I got out my 2007 return which was filled on 2/22/08 and entered all the information directly from the tax return to the site, still does not work. I tried 'Where my refund', and got it to work, but 'wheres my stimulus' does not work no matter what I try. According the the stimulus calc, I am due $2381 and my ss end in 05

I actually called the IRS earlier, and the rep was completely unfamiliar with the whole "wheres my stimulus" feature. Insisted they had no such thing. Referred back to the same old stupid, unupdated chart on their website. I could literally scream. Especially when people talk about higher numbers who have gotten theres or others due tomorrow who aren't in the system either. I really wish they would have never said a word about them coming earlier. Oh well, nothing to do but wait.

Don't bother calling, I was very polite and pleasant and got my head ripped off. He knew nothing about anything anyhow.

none of those IRS people know anything! they ought to swim in the same vat as the lawyers that don't know anything either. most of them live in India and you can't understand a word they say.

I thought for a minute that this site was a scam, but you can link to the same address through irs.gov, so it seems lagit. I am really counting on this $as I am getting 2381 back, I am holding off filling ch7 until I spend it.

good lord i never thought of that, jeepers creepers

I haven't filed yet.

You haven't filed yet? If you didn't file, you won't get the stimulus check. Did I misunderstand?

[justplaintired]

I guess you didn't read the whole thread. I said in an earlier post, that I FILED my taxes in February, but I haven't filed BK yet.

Disregard previous post, that will teach me to come in half way threw a thread!!

[justplaintired]

Ok I have checked threw out the day and every single time it tells me I made a mistake. Our last 2 numbers are 09 and the original day was the 2nd, so I give up on this thing, now I will just wait and see.

I think it is more frustrating when your number is a lower one and people with higher numbers have gotten theirs or have a direct date from the linked page.

I just checked my account this am and mine is in the bank now.

[krielly]

Mine is in my account this morning!

Mine was in my acct this morning.

There must be something buggy with the "Where's my Stimulus" link. I had no problems with it at all.

I actually think when it was deposited had more to do with the timeline of when you filed your taxes than by your last two digits of your ss#. But I do wish they hadn't promoted the fact that people would be getting it early because I started checking my acct for it every day

I've decided I'm not going to say anything about mine to my attorney. If the trustee wanted it, he's had enough time to decide and notify us. Plus ours is only the base amounts due to our net tax liability, hardly worth the trustee's time! Besides, we filed before it was even an issue. I would rather we had been discharged and closed before it arrived but for some reason, we are STILL waiting like PA Kettle I'm getting impatient (87 days and counting!)

[justplaintired]

Ok, I called my bank and was told by them that it wouldn't show until tomorrow if it's direct deposit today, wouldn't show until midnight tonight. Part of being with a small town bank. There system isn't as advanced I guess. We still don't have online banking but they are working on that and it should happen this month sometime. Anyway, no check here.

For all those that got it, when did you file?
