Stimulus Payment?
I have checked the IRS website and it stated since last week that my Stimulus payment would be $900 and would be issued on May 21st. I checked today and now all of a sudden they don’t have any of my info. Has anyone else had problems with their website or does that mean there could be a problem. It’s weird because even yesterday I checked and it said it was getting mailed out today. I have also already received my federal refund.
My boyfriend is having a major problem as well. He should have gotten his payment two weeks ago and it’s still not in his account. I read that they have been having so major issues lately and that it’ll take time to resolve everything. If it doesn’t show up in th next few days, be ready to call them and complain.

ignore the website,it happened to me also and others on here too who was scheduled for dd on the 16th ,we still got our rebates on that day,if you check often it will lock you out just like the refund tool.call the rebate hotline and it’ll still say your info,1-866-234-2942.

I wouldn’t worry…many people have had that happen and still got their money…don’t know if it’s a glitch or if their system just gets overloaded! Check tomorrow and I bet it will show back up!

Have you called the automated rebate hotline? Try calling it and see if you get your information.
Call 1-866-234-2942 and after the automated message press 2 and follow the prompts.
I am in the group of 26 to 38 and my paper check is scheduled to be mailed according to the irs paper check schedule is 6/6.
But today is the first time that I received any information concerning my rebate. I can’t get it on the irs website, but the automated phone system told me that my check is scheduled to be mailed on 5/28 and that I should have received a 2nd notice in the mail explaining my rebate. I guess I will get that letter this week. Why couldn’t they just send the check.
I really don’t think there is a problem.
Post back if you want to after you call. Let everyone know if the phone system has the same info that you have been getting.
I just want the website to update so I can see what mail date it has.

Me2 exact scenerio, thought I would get it May9, thought I was getting $900, and found out wasn’t getting until the end of June in the mail, even though I did Direct Deposit, there website, isnt very informative. Maybe this will make it easier for you,the stimulous rebate hotline is 800 829 1040, it is automated, one option will tell you if you are getting a check, the other option will tell you when. I’m still waiting on the payment,like many others, but maybe this info will help.
