When I called H&R Block they stated I would receive it on the card I get my paychecks from my job put there but checking further I found out if you got a RAL you will get a paper its a matter of waiting and see. This is very frustrating. Shocked

For everyone out there if you used TurboTax you will not get direct deposit. Check out their website for more information. If you did use and are depended on this money showing up I'm sure you will be as pissed as I am. I will not use their system again as they did not safegaurd their customers and inform us sooner of the problems with getting our refunds. They know well in advance and did nothing.

Vicki -

It is not correct to blame TurboTax - it's not TurboTax's fault.

The fact is that if you used ANY online service to do your own taxes (not just TurboTax) and you received a "RAPID REFUND" or had the fees for using the online service taken out of your refund, instead of paying for them with a credit or debit card, THAT is the reason you are not receiving your stimulus payment via direct deposit, but by check.

If you used TurboTax (or any other online service) to do your taxes, and you paid the fees for using the program by credit or debit card, and you had your tax refund direct deposited, you will still get your stimulus payment by direct deposit - it's as simple as that.

If you choose not to use TurboTax again because of this issue, you are not punishing the true culprit here. If you want to blame anyone, blame the IRS for not making this information public a lot sooner than they did (last week).

Barbara -

If you filed your taxes and did not have any fees taken out of your refund for using an online tax service (like TurboTax or TaxCut), and you did not receive a Refund Anticipation Loan (like H&R Block's Rapid Refund), AND you had your federal tax refund sent to you by direct deposit, then you should have received your stimulus payment by direct deposit this week.

Also, if you owe any back taxes or any money to the IRS for any reason, your stimulus payment may be used to pay that and you won't receive it.

However....

There are many factors that can stop or delay your stimulus payment. If you have not received it by Monday, you may want to call the IRS and see what's up.

Does anyone know

1. If you owe will they take it from your stimulus and you would get the balance right? I have been searching for this answer and can not find it?

2. Will owing hold it up? or will it come as scheduled?

3. Seems things are running a week ahead of time, does anyone else notice this. My last two is 25, so according to the schedule my paper check should come out before 5/30, however, my brother is 11 and was supposed to be by 5/23 and it shows his will be sent on 5/14 which is a week a head of schedule.

any help would be great, thanks in advance?????

You may want to check the irs.gov website. Be sure to have your social, filing status and number of exemptions. Click on the "where's my refund" and there will be a link for "where is my stimulus payment".

Hope this helps.

Here is the link to "where is my stimulus payment":

https://sa2.www4.irs.gov/irfof/IRServlet?app=IRACTC

Please keep in mind, however, there are various reasons why people aren't receiving the payments on time:

-if you filed your taxes using an online service, like TurboTax, and you either had the fees for the service taken out of your refund OR you requested a Refund Anticipation Loan (RAL), you will not receive your stimulus payment by direct deposit - you will receive a check, and it will be mailed according to the schedule posted here:

http://www.irs.gov/irs/article/0,,id=180250,00.html

-If you filed your taxes on or after April 15, your stimulus payment will not be mailed according to the schedule posted at irs.gov - it will be mailed 6-8 weeks after the time your return was accepted by the IRS.

Here's the answers I found for your question about owing taxes possibly holding up your stimulus payment:

Quote:
Q. I received my stimulus payment, but it was less than what my friends and neighbors received. Why?

A. Your economic stimulus payment will be based on information provided on your 2007 income tax return.

Many, but not all, taxpayers qualify for the maximum basic payment of $600 for singles or $1,200 for married couples. Many parents are also receiving an additional $300 for each qualifying child, born after Dec. 31, 1990.

Your payment may be less than the maximum for one or more of the following reasons:

You are single and your net income tax liability is less than $600. If you file Form 1040 net income tax liability is the amount shown on Line 57, plus the amount on Line 52.
You are married and your net income tax liability is less than $1,200.
You are single and your adjusted gross income (AGI) is more than $75,000. On Form 1040, AGI is the amount on Line 37.
You are married filing a joint return and your AGI is more than $150,000.
You owe back taxes.
You have non-tax federal debts such as unpaid student loans or child-support obligations.
Around the same time you receive your payment, you will receive a notice from the IRS explaining how your payment was figured. It is important to keep this notice as a record of your economic stimulus payment. In addition, you’ll get a separate notice if you owe back taxes or non-tax debts.


Quote:
Q. I'm eligible for a payment but I still owe federal income tax from a prior year. Will my payment be reduced?

A. Yes. For this purpose, the stimulus payment is treated like any other tax refund. This means that part or all of your payment can be used to pay past-due federal or state income taxes or non-tax federal debt such as student loans and child support.

Q. How will I be notified if my stimulus payment was used to offset an outstanding debt?

A. If this occurs, you will receive a letter explaining how the stimulus payment was applied. [New 4/11/08]



Based on those answers from the IRS, I'd say even if you owe money to the IRS, if the amount you owe is less than the stimulus payment amount, you will receive your check according to the schedule - it will just be for a lesser amount - and you should recieve a letter either just before or just after you receive your check to tell you how your stimulus payment was figured and why it was reduced.

suebee,
Do you know if this will hold my stimulus up, I don't care if they take the money out, I just wonder if I will get it on time or not, will it go by the schedule.

I honestly don't think owing money is going to hold up your check - but if you owe more than the stimulus payment, they will just keep the whole check and you won't get it.

If you are uncertain about it, I would recommend calling the IRS and talking to them about it. And I definitely wouldn't recommend counting on that money to come when they say it will! Unfortunately, there's a lot of confusion going on over this stimulus payment thing.
