Roadwarrior -
I'm still getting the same results - what's really funny, though, is that when I called the IRS the other night, even the IRS employee didn't tell me that the information wouldn't be available on the "where's my stimulus payment" link until it's scheduled to be deposited - so probably not until about a day before it's deposited.
So if the IRS employees aren't even aware of this little kink in the system (or are aware but aren't telling), why even bother having the link up there?

Interesting.....the IRS must have finally wised up and listened to the millions of people calling and complaining that they can't get status on the "where's my stimulus payment" link on their site...
If you go there now and your the info on your payment is not available, you get the following message:
| Quote: | We are sorry. Specific information about your Stimulus payment is not available.
Possible reasons include:
* Your payment may still be coming, but has not yet been scheduled. Information will be available here as payments are issued based on the last two digits of the primary SSN shown on your 2007 tax return. Specific information about your Stimulus Payment will not be available until about one week before your payment is scheduled to be issued. See the complete Payment Schedule below for more information.
* You did not file a tax return for 2007 or your return is still being processed. Additional information about filing requirements is available.
* The information entered did not match our records. Be sure to check the information you entered. You may Re-Enter your information as necessary.
Remember, to qualify for the Stimulus Payment, you must meet the eligibility requirements. Please allow 6 weeks after filing your tax return before checking on the status of your Stimulus Payment.
Payment Schedule
Please allow 2 weeks from the date shown on the schedule to receive your payment.
DIRECT DEPOSIT
Last two SSN digits: Payments will be transmitted no later than:
00 through 20 May 2
21 through 75 May 9
76 through 99 May 16
Paper checks will also go out based on Social Security number. For Social Security numbers ending in 00 through 09, the paper checks will be mailed starting May 9 and will continue through May 16. A similar process will be repeated in the following weeks.
PAPER CHECK
Last two SSN digits: Payments will be mailed no later than:
00 through 09 May 16
10 through 18 May 23
19 through 25 May 30
26 through 38 June 6
39 through 51 June 13
52 through 63 June 20
64 through 75 June 27
76 through 87 July 4
88 through 99 July 11

Ok...so now I have another question.  Has anyone who is due to have their payment direct deposited sometime this week (say, by Friday) seen their info using the "where's my stimulus payment" link yet? I've tried today, and nothing. Got the same message as above. So if I'm supposed to get mine by Friday (according to the schedule), where's my info?

| Sue, this entire process has been a mix up if you ask me, I've got lots of friends and family that thought they would have their money this past Friday, and NOTHING....I don't get it. |

I think you're right, lmale. A friend of mine at work said her father actually got his last week, and his SS ends in 70!! According to the schedule, he shouldn't have gotten his until this week.
I guess I'm just worried because now it says the data will be available within a week prior to when the deposit is supposed to be made...but mine should be done on the 9th and no data is there yet.

Hey everyone, my last numbers are 86 which means that I should get it on or around the 16th, but I read somewhere last week that everything was moved AHEAD one week, so I am hoping that I should get mine around or on the 9th. This is a blessing and yet nerve racking as well.

I know Luke - have you tried the "where's my stimulus payment" link yet? I'd be interested to see if your info shows up.
In fact, I'd like to know if anyone who is scheduled to receive their payment by the 9th has seen their info on that link yet.

No, it just says I entered in the wrong info, that crap. I always put the right stuff in. It is just a passifier for millions. I will get my check in a few weeks I am sure.

Yes, someone did get their stimulus payment in their account early I think Wednesday or Thursday, they are the ones that started this thread. I know mine won't be here for awhile as I accidently filed two 1040(a's) because I didn't think the IRS website had received it...stupid me  ...I could have had my money by now.
I normally don't file a tax return because my disability is so little |

My daughter's is being sent via a check even though she did direct deposit thru Turbo Tax. I have heard that those that utilized that program will get there money sent via check. Her last two digits were 00 and this was just made available this morning.
Thought I would advise just give to everyone else a heads up. |

Anyone that used a online tax program and had their fees deducted from their refund will get a paper check. If you used a free program or paid using a debit or credit card you would still get direct deposit.
