Trump should have signed it, "John Miller".

 

Jon Miller, the famous sportscaster, and former Orioles radio guy?  I definitely would have kept it then.  Or John Miller, Jennifer Garner's boyfriend?  Or the Panthers' offensive lineman?

 

I don't know who John Miller is lol.

Know some as well who receive SSA retirement benefits, don't have any other source of income, and are not required to file income tax forms. Get their SSA benefits via direct deposit. When using the Get My Payment tool, they keep getting the "status not available" message (or whatever it says). Some in their boat have either already received the stimulus payment or at least received a date to expect it. They've gotten neither. I entered their info for them in case they did it wrong, and got the same thing, A lot of anxiety over this.

I really wish that was the case lol...but nope. I'm thinking that either the IRS is just astoundingly behind or that there's no stimulus coming for one reason or another. This didn't apply to me but for the person I was entering the info for. This morning, still getting Status Not Available and still no direct deposit. Luckily for me (I guess), I was finally able to enter my banking info last Friday. Now I gotta wait and see what happens (no payment date info when I check on my personal status).

Here is some recent info on stimulus checks: 

https://www.fool.com/personal-finance/2020/04/29/the-irs-has-set-a-new-may-5-stimulus-check-deadlin.aspx

 

Looks like two groups still have to register. From the article they are: 

 

  • --> SSI recipients who have dependent children under 17 and who did not submit a 2018 or 2019 tax return
  • --> Recipients of Veterans Affairs benefits who did not file a 2018 or 2019 return and who have dependent children under 17

So, on April 15 my wife and I got a sum of money direct deposited into our bank account from the IRS.

Today, I got a letter from the White House explaining the money. Signed by Donald Trump. It's gaudy as ****. Couldn't send me a check because I'm on direct deposit, so he made sure to send me a letter in the mail to get his signature out there. Let me know who's feeding me.

I finally this morning got a different notice. When I logged in, it asked for my bank info (routing,  acct) after I had to enter my AGI from 2018, whether I got money back or owed, and how much.

 

Glad to know I might not have to wait to August for the eip.

 

Edit..after entering that info and then going back and checking with the wife's SSN, I get the same status as you have, StillUnknown. Sounds like we are at the whim of whenever the IRS wants to pay us now..but atleast they have the info.

 

And I don't have to unnecessarily file for 2019 yet.

Not sure what I was expecting but no change in almost a week.  So much for the glimmer of hope last week. 

 

Status finally changed overnight. Says our funding will be deposited May 6th.

 

Fingers crossed, I've got unnecessary things to buy.

Stimulus Proposal: $2,000 Payment Plus $1,000 Per Month Until 1 Year After Crisis Ends

 

The CARES Act provided many Americans with financial relief in the form of a $1,200 stimulus check. But as that program rolls out, it has become apparent to lawmakers that more financial assistance is needed. There are currently several proposals from various lawmakers that would provide Americans with ongoing financial support. You can learn more about current proposals here.

Now you can add the Automatic BOOST to Communities (ABC) Act proposal, which was introduced by Congresswomen Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) and Pramila Jayapal (D-WA).

If approved, the ABC Act would provide every American with a BOOST debit card that is preloaded with $2,000. The card would be reloaded with $1,000 each month until one year after the end of the COVID-19 crisis.

The bill calls for the use of pre-paid debit cards to assist those who are unbanked or do not have access to check cashing services.

Who Would Be Eligible for the $2,000 Stimulus Payment & $1,000 Recurring Payment?

The goal of this bill is to guarantee no one is left behind. As written, the bill would provide a $2,000 pre-paid debit card to everyone, including:

 

  • Taxpayers
  • Dependents
  • Non-citizens 
  • Individuals who do not have a bank account, social security number, or permanent address.
  • People living in unincorporated territories or protectorates and Americans living abroad.

 

Dependents: The proposal gives an example of a family with four dependents being eligible to receive a pre-paid debit card for each taxpayer and each dependent. For example, a couple with two children would receive 4 debit cards at $2000 each, for a total of $8,000.

Non-citizens: This would include permanent residents, undocumented individuals, and temporary visitors whose stay exceeds three months.

These pre-paid debit cards would be reloaded with $1,000 each month until one year after the coronavirus emergency ends.

 

 

The U.S. Treasury Would Work with Other Agencies to Develop a Comprehensive List

The proposal calls for the U.S. Treasury to work with other governmental agencies to develop the most comprehensive list of recipients possible. This would include working with the Internal Revenue Service, the Social Security Administration, the Federal Election Commission, and every other relevant federal, state, and local government agency, including state-level Departments of Motor Vehicles (DMVs).

 

How Would Money Be Distributed?

The funds would be distributed via pre-paid U.S. Debit Cards in a program managed by the U.S. Treasury.

The pre-paid U.S. Debit Cards would be distributed via:

 

  • Direct Mail
  • In-person Pickup
  • At-Risk Outreach

 

All individuals with an active address on file with any government agency would have a card sent to them to that address via USPS.

In-Person Pickup would apply to those who do not have a permanent address, as well as permanent residents, undocumented individuals, and temporary visitors whose stay exceeds three months.

At-Risk Outreach would address those who are elderly, homeless, disabled, or those live in remote areas.

 

How Could the Funds Be Used?

The pre-paid U.S. Debit Cards could be used to make purchases at stores or online, or to make cash withdrawals at ATMs. Cardholders would also have the ability to top up their balances at any time, either during or after the crisis.

 

The ABC Act Would Be Paid For with Two $1 Trillion Coins

The ABC Act would be funded directly from the Treasury with no additional debt issued by minting two $1 trillion platinum coins. Additional coins would be minted as needed. Title 31 of the U.S. Code gives the Treasury Secretary the authority to mint and issue platinum bullion coins (see 31 U.S.C. § 5112(k)).

 

Proposal Calls for Digital Dollar System by 2021

This proposal also outlines the possibility of using the infrastructure behind the U.S. Debit Card system to create a “digital public currency wallet system,” or a digital currency based on the U.S. dollar

Forbes Contributor Jason Brett interviewed Congresswoman Tlaib about this topic in this article.
