Thanks for SavvySugar for doing the research on this one.
Sitting around wondering when you can get your hands on that economic stimulus check? After all, how can we all run to Target and spend our way out of recession if we don’t have the money in our pockets?
Well, it’s the government, so it’s not coming tomorrow. Or the next day.
Turns out the checks will go out based on the last two digits of your social security number. If you do direct deposit, you’ll see the money in your account some time in May. Good old paper checks might not see anything until July!
(PS… here’s a rundown of how much money you can expect)
Direct deposit payment
| Last 2 Digits of SSN | Date Check Will Be Sent |
|---|---|
| 00-20 | May 2 |
| 21-75 | May 9 |
| 76-99 | May 16 |
Paper check
| Last 2 Digits of SSN | Date Check Will Be Sent |
|---|---|
| 00-09 | May 16 |
| 10-18 | May 23 |
| 19-25 | May 30 |
| 26-38 | June 6 |
| 39-51 | June 13 |
| 52-63 | June 20 |
| 64-75 | June 27 |
| 76-87 | July 4 |
| 88-99 | July 11 |

You guys are fucking retarded. It says right in the article when you will get your check… you both posted before the first wave was even supposed to come. The worst part about it is that you dillholes have kids.
Everyone has a wife and kids and not enough money, you jackasses seem to think you are special.
