Just a Little Behind Schedule
For those eligible, the "economic stimulus" payments have been getting sent out since mid-April. Since a check for several hundred dollars is always welcome 'round here, I checked the IRS site to see when I'd be getting my money.
Not bad, I should have a check in my grubby little fist by the beginning of June.
I then used the "where's my check" online widget, and got back... nothing. The IRS apparently didn't have a clue when they'd be sending it out. I decided I should call the IRS and get this figured out.
Then I forgot. Hey, I still haven't gotten the dog to the vet, and I haven't had a physical since 1994. Remembering things ain't my strong suit.
Anyway, I checked again recently, and here's what their app had to say:
Hmm... May 23 to July 4. Never mind that I doubt anything will be happening at the IRS offices on Independence Day. They're barely into the checks and they're already 6 weeks behind schedule. Efficiency only the government could love.
Edit, 7/6/08 9:17 AM: And in my mailbox on Saturday I had a check dated July 4th. Now it's possible that there was a drop directly at a USPS hub and the check was really issued on 7/4, but I'm going to go with the IRS sending me a post-dated check so it could match the date in the Where's My Money app.
Programming note: Since my best weeks tend to produce three blog posts nowadays, I've shifted to a MWF schedule instead of leaving gaps in a MTRF schedule like I've been doing. Change goes into effect tomorrow (no post) and Wednesday (new post).
