I did think you were serious, but it sounds like this current government. It certainly wouldn’t surprise me.

The smart thing to do would have some weighted formula of AGI and number of dependents, prioritizing those most in need.

I know that's not the case, otherwise I wouldn't have found my pending deposit Monday morning, but it leaves me baffled. Single, old dude with no dependents and a middle class AGI. My sister is close in age, no dependents and similar income but hasn't received hers yet. Her SSN is very close to mine, so it isn't that.

I finally figured that it came to down to me being a white male, or that my financial institution name or routing numbers are are nearer the top of the list than hers.

I believe they're starting with the peeps they have bank info for. Those are the fastest, least expensive, & most efficient. Not sure what the logic is on the <=16 thing. Isn't that when they're most expensive?

They've been direct depositing my tax return to the same bank for about as long as that has been option. I think most people do that these days.

Floyd might be on to something about bank accounts. You guys that have received yours (or that it is pending), post your bank account number here. Actually, it might be based on your PIN or password, so you guys better post that, too.

It would not surprise me at all if certain states we prioritized.

Also, I believe the data has to be grouped into separate electronic files by bank. Then each file is individually sent to the appropriate bank. Also, funds must be transferred to the banks to cover the payments.

It would be an interesting business case study to review how this is all done.

Probably those who need it the most. We did get ours deposited today. I'm not sure what to do with it, but maybe I'll go to Publix today.

This. People who didn't have to file because the made less than $12,500 or $25,000 as a household. Or seniors on social security.

Right, I just meant that it isn't going to buy him many votes, as I don't think he will sway those groups much regardless.

Guys, can we all take a moment to praise Bob? He's clearly after some sort of recognition, since he keeps telling us all how he is donating his stimulus to charity.

by AvgMSUJoe 2020-04-15, 09:44

Got mine.

Hopefully, will go to a down payment on a car if we survive without "needing" it prior to the wife going back to work.

Apparently, this is the message you get when the server is too busy. You know, instead of "Server busy. Try again later." Rolling Eyes

That's some top-notch error handling. People who signed off on that heart-attack inducing message should be demoted.

By the way, they said you get another $500 for kids up to 16. What about 16/17 year olds? My nephew turns 18 in May. Hasn't ever filed a tax return. I saw where they are giving the stimulus to those who don't file taxes, even if it might take longer, but does that include 16/17 olds? I guess I don't really care, as they're fine, but just curious.

I think they're SOL.

Mine was pending since like midnight. Haven’t checked since.

Btw, we got ours today too. Didn't get a lot but enough to buy a new Weber grill, some liquor from Costco, a trampoline for the kids and the rest we'll put into our mortgage account. Figure I've used enough of mine to try to stimulate the economy, I guess.

Need details such as which models of pistols and grills are up for consideration. I'm much more well versed on the former, but the wife and I have had a Weber S-315 for the last handful of years and have been very happy with it. I've also had a Glock 23 for the past handful of years and I love that too! For me it would depend on the current count of pistols vs. the need for a new grill. I'm actually covered quite well in both departments, but there's always room for another pistol!
