When can I expect my rebate check?
If you filed your taxes you may already have your tax rebate in your bank account.
The IRS started depositing stimulus payments earlier than expected. Rebates will be sent out based on the last two digits of your social security number.
The announced schedule for depositing is listed below. To determine how much you can expect, have your copy of your return and visit the IRS Economic Stimulus Payment Calculator website.
| IF YOU CHOSE YOUR REBATE TO BE DIRECTLY DEPOSITED: | |
|---|---|
| Last 2 digits of your SS# | Date of rebate deposit |
| 00-20 | May 2 |
| 21-75 | May 9 |
| 76-99 | May 16 |
| IF YOU CHOSE TO RECEIVE A PAPER CHECK: | |
|---|---|
| Last 2 digits of your SS# | Date of rebate mailing |
| 00-09 | May 16 |
| 10-18 | May 23 |
| 19-25 | May 30 |
| 26-38 | June 6 |
| 39-51 | June 13 |
| 52-63 | June 20 |
| 64-75 | June 27 |
| 76-87 | July 4 |
| 88-99 | July 11 |

My husband and I file jointly. Will our rebate check come jointly or will each of us get a separate check?

When will my husband expect our rebate? We filed jointly and by the date that is on the computer and news we should have already received our rebate but we haven't.

To everyone:
Your questions should be answered in Katie's original post above, or in this post, which addresses several other questions.

I filed using Turbo Tax in February, and opted for direct deposit. According to the last 2 digits of my SSN I thought the rebate would have been deposited into my checking account on 5/2/08. It's 5/6/08 and I still do not have it. It was explained that all one had to do to receive a rebate was to file for 2007, which I did. Please advise.

To Dakotah:
A couple of possibilities -
- You may be on the paper check schedule instead of the direct deposit schedule. If Turbo Tax deducted fees or you got a rapid refund in 2007, you'll get a paper check instead, per the IRS.
- Do you owe money to the IRS, a student loan, child support or the state of Missouri? If so, your stimulus payment will be used to satisfy those obligations first.
