I heard by the 13th somewhere in an article. But no updates from IRS or HR Block

I have an Emerald Card that they just put the money on, so I would think it would be "easy" but then again, who's handling this? Treasury or the IRS?

My impression was that the IRS will be handling the actual disbursement.

when the money starts arriving, people will start threads about that. I'd be surprised if I got mine before the end of the month.

15. IRS to start sending stimulus checks April 9 -- but some Americans won't receive them until September

The IRS plan would distribute paper checks to the lowest-income Americans first, prioritizing payments for individual taxpayers with incomes of $10,000 or less on April 24.

Checks for earners of $20,000 or less would be in the mail May 1

Those with incomes of $30,000 on May 8,

$40,000 on May 15,

and continuing in income increments of $10,000 each week, according to the plan. The IRS plans to issue about 5 million checks each week.

to be repaid at 2021 tax time? So Americans will have received checks with the turd's signature on them (if not direct deposited), and then AFTER the election, they have to pay it back.

Details, details.

That is a very important minor technicality.

Thu Apr 9, 2020, 07:53 AM

The procedure is weird making some misunderstand. Everyone gets a tax credit on their 2020 income tax return. The one due April 15 2021. Created out of thin air, free money. The check or direct deposit we get now, $1200 etc., is an advance against that 2020 tax refund. So next year people who deserved the stimulus check but somehow missed getting it will get the $1200 on next years tax return. But those who get the check this year will not get a refund next year.

It is free money. No need to pay anything next year.
