A welcome announcement came from the IRS today that they are going to be about a week ahead of schedule in directly depositing and mailing the tax rebate checks from the economic stimulus package.

Here is a list of when to expect your payments based on whether you are receiving a paper check or direct deposit:

DIRECT DEPOSIT

 Last two SSN digits:  Payment will be transmitted by:
00 through 20 May 2
21 through 75 May 9
76 through 99 May 16

PAPER CHECK

Last two SSN digits:  Payments will be mailed by:
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

Hi Lauren,

I don’t know that I have a good answer for you. Here’s what I would do:

Check out the IRS’ website and use the “Where’s my stimulus payment” tool. The link below should work. If not, go to http://www.irs.gov and click on the “Rebate Payment Questions” link and look for “Where’s my stimulus payment?”

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

If you still don’t have any luck using that tool, then I’m afraid you may have to call the IRS at 1-800-829-1040 and someone there should be able to assist you.

There are also some Frequently Asked Questions on the IRS.gov website about why rebate checks were smaller than you thought or didn’t come, so one of those reasons may apply.

Good luck!

Tripp

Hi Lauren,
I was reading on TaxGirl.com today and she had an interesting post that may be the cause of your frustrations.
