Have you tried tracking the status of it?

Yeah, always says the same thing.
Payment Status Not Available.

It doesn't say "once we have a date we'll update this page" anywhere? That's what it said for mine when I was waiting for it.

I think a bunch of posts were deleted.
I don't see any of the stimulus discussion from yesterday...
Was going to use the post Mifune sent to go back to that link and check status again.

Very true. Fortunately I don't live in an area with many people having that attitude.

I'm somewhat used to them at work, whenever I'm creating sawdust. But it's generally only minutes at a time. It would be rough having it on for an hour or two, much less for a full flight. And how are they going to eat or drink? Put the shields up just for that?

Lee, I don't think it would help.

Not sure if you’ve done this, so forgive me if I give information you already have, and if you so perhaps it can help others.

Although not well publicized, if you do not have direct deposit from the IRS for your refunds the IRS does not have your info and will mail you a check later. Probably much later.
Many assume that if they get money deposited vis turbo tax or H&R block That the IRS has their banking info. Not true. Those tax companies are an intermediary and they take the IRS money, remove their fee, and then deposit the money themselves into your bank.
You have to give the IRS your account routing number yourself in these cases. That’s what I did.

That said, I know Student Loans (trade school, not college) stopped being paid back, by Government decree, but that didn't stop it from negatively hitting my Credit Score last month and this month. What a freaking joke. I'm trying to rebuild my credit and that is some serious b*llsh*t!
I tried calling around and either got dead numbers or a run-around.

It shouldn’t be hitting your credit report. How it that even possible if your loan is in deferment?

Keep in mind what you are not seeing is the people wearing masks. That is pretty much a given when flying now.

It doesn't really have to work 100%, it just has to make people more at ease sitting so close to each other.

All the direct deposits have been made. Checks are going out on a weekly basis and will continue to into June.

I have Direct Deposit set up with Disability. I have had for the last 6 years.
Every time I moved or changed banks, I updated that same day. The last time I moved was in August 2019. They've been updated since then.
As I am on disability and with such a low income, I am not required to file a tax return.

This is what the email says:

Hi Kevin,

Just letting you know a missed payment was added to a US DEPT OF EDUCATION account on your TransUnion credit report.1

A late payment can impact your credit, so it's worth keeping an eye on.

We know times are tough, but there are ways to get some financial relief. Check out this article to see what credit card companies are offering.

If you didn't miss a payment, you can file a dispute with the credit bureau.

No idea where to try to call next...

You are on SSI or SSDI? You should have already received your stimulus money:

SSDI it looks like.

I’m trying hard not to be too judgmental of other people during this difficult time.

But at this point in the game, if you’re not wearing a mask at the grocery store, then you fall squarely into the category of “inconsiderate and/or ignorant douche.”

...straight talk.

You're failing.
