It's a Photoshop/fake bank account app that's been circulating for a few weeks. Yeah, like this one that is clearly fake due to the date. Had the date been for this week, it would have been accurate for a lot of people.

April 15, 20205 yr Haven't gotten my money yet because the IRS didn't have my direct deposit info, even though they took money directly out of my bank like two months ago. Gave them my bank info, so now all I do is wait I guess.
April 15, 20205 yr Curious if this is prioritized based off of income, filing date, last name or what. Didnt file my most recent return due to I would have to pay in about 1100 and would rather wait till July and keep the cash on hand just in case. Last years my AGI was literally 149k, so right under the max for filling married, so I am really curious where I am in the line for this. I'd say nice humblebrag but obviously you're surly poor.
April 15, 20205 yr Mine showed up today. Every calculator told me I was getting $1700, but only $1200 showed up. The golf clubs I picked out came to $1630 so I'll have to supplement I suppose.
April 15, 20205 yr My online banking login is having technical difficulties. Errbody looking for that trump money. I already bought a Thermoworks BBQ thermometer and a nice bottle of whiskey.

I shouldn’t have responded to MNLonghorn. *********** If you live in the Fargo area and want to fish, go with an OB. It will extend your boating season by weeks or possibly months. Unless you have it stored in a heated garage, your IO will have to be winterized after your last outing, which could be forced to an late September/early October in the ND/MN border region. I live in an area that has probably 4 weeks (2 weeks on each end of the season) longer IO season than your area. That translates to a mid-October winterizing...at $250 YAY! One year, I had my IO boat in unheated storage and forgot to winterize it before we left for a trip to Austin for an October game. I saw the temps back home when the front hit, and I worried the entire time I was in Texas. When we got back, I immediately took it in for winterizing, but it was too late. That was a $4,000 mistake. A few years later, my SIL convinced me to let him and his dad winterize it. He said they had done it before. That was another $4,000 mistake. There is open water where I live for all or parts of every month, and there are warm weekends in Dec-Feb when all the OB guys can hit the water to fish. If I do that, I have to get it winterized on Monday to the tune of $250. If you are getting it strictly for wakeboarding, tubing, or skiing, the IO has definite advantages. Edited April 15, 20205 yr by ImissWallyPryor I’m confused. Winterizing may not even be a factor.
April 15, 20205 yr My money was deposited today. Conveniently, the shower in my master bath is leaking and has to be gutted and redone. The quote was in the neighborhood of $2000. Fucking hell.
April 15, 20205 yr According to the IRS portal "Status Not Available." Between this and the independent contractor portion of the PPP fiasco, I'm just hitting on all cylinders with this crisis.

April 15, 20205 yr All that work for nothing.... I was obviously just doing a hit-and-run glance at the thread.
April 15, 20205 yr Now I have a serious question. One of my kids filed taxes for both 2018 and 2019, then moved and changed bank accounts. The old bank advised coming in to open a new account into which they would "try" to redirect the deposit. That can't be done today because of time and distance. Doing this tomorrow will only decrease the odds of success. Does anyone here know what will happen to the funds if the electronic deposit fails? Does it go back to the IRS for issuance of a paper check which won't happen until May 4 - who knows when? Edited April 15, 20205 yr by ImissWallyPryor
April 15, 20205 yr you should really use this check to buy SSNs off the black market to reap in even more stimulus cheddar #infinitemoney

April 15, 20205 yr Scammers already out angling for stimulus money. Just got a call from a heavily accented man claiming to be calling from "government program" I didn't let him get into his spiel but I'm sure it's along the lines of getting old clueless people to "verify" their accounts regarding the stimulus and then cleaning them out.

You can update your direct deposit info from 2018 but not 2019. It reverts to the most recent information.

You still pick up calls from phone numbers that aren't in your phonebook?
April 15, 20205 yr Dunno how ours is coming to us, as we don’t do direct deposit for income tax returns. (Usually have to pay in). However our Social Security annuities are direct deposited. Don’t care either way because we will give most - if not all - of it to grandkids who work for restaurants..... or used to.

April 16, 20205 yr Yeah this “status unavailable” BS sucks. Pretty sure I read there’s going to be another portal for people just needing to update their direct deposit info. Haven’t talked to one person today that has had the new portal work. People have received moneys though.... blasted.
April 16, 20205 yr More information required. Apparently owing money and paying direct out of the bank account doesn’t count for having my direct deposit info.

Was talking to a coworker whose daughter is a physical education teacher. Kind of hard to teach that online, i suppose. Her school district posted suggested physical activities for the kids online, the equivalent of a lesson plan. The kids are supposed to do them and report back online. This chick basically just grades the kids based on whether they report back that they did the exercise. Basically fully paid vacation, as it takes her 10 minutes a day.

April 16, 20205 yr I didn't realize the govt was giving people on unemployment an extra $600/wk on top of the state benefits. That's $4.5k a month in Texas + the Trump bucks. I'd be willing to bet that a lot of the people who got laid off/furloughed are getting a pay raise. Lulz

My fiancé got in a hurry to file her taxes today to feel like she would become eligible even though she filed in 18. That led her to finding out that she owes the same amount as the stim check would be. Except...she doesn’t have that check yet. Yeah, not a happy moment.
April 16, 20205 yr My money was deposited today. Conveniently, the shower in my master bath is leaking and has to be gutted and redone. The quote was in the neighborhood of $2000. Fucking hell.

Lulz In Texas, he weekly maximum benefit + $600, works out to $28.025 an hour, $1,121, and $4,484.00 a month. Retail, tourism, and restaurant/hospitality employees probably won't qualify for the max benefit. Perhaps some airline employees will. It would be a pay cut for most oil and gas jobs. I'd agree that yes in some states, yes it's a significant raise for minimum wage employees. For career types in Texas it will certainly help, but it probably won't be a raise.
