Scrapbooking crap? Would you ever call a tv or computer crap? I am not a scrapper - had kids before it became the rage, but enjoy that she has a hobby and does not bug you as much.

From an e-mail I just received from Turbo Tax:

Dear Valued Customer,

We want to provide you with the most up–to–date information about the tax rebate to which you may be entitled.

Recently, you may have received a letter from the IRS advising you when to expect your Economic Stimulus Payment (rebate). That IRS letter may have inadvertently left off some important information. Taxpayers who chose to have their tax preparation fees deducted from their federal tax refund will receive their tax rebate in the mail, not via direct deposit.

Our records show that you chose this payment option in TurboTax. As a result, the IRS has determined that you will receive your tax rebate in the mail. This may result in you receiving your rebate on a date later than expected.

This situation, while not unique to TurboTax, is understandably causing some concern and confusion. To help further clarify the situation, below is the most current IRS rebate payment processing schedule, as well as additional resources about the tax rebates.

I hope you find this information helpful. If you still have questions, the best source for the most up-to-date information is www.irs.gov (see the "Rebate Payment Questions" link).

Sincerely,

Bob Meighan

Vice President, TurboTax Customer Advocacy

yes...yes i would...just like i'd call my golf clubs crap, my softball equipment crap, my hunting equipment crap, and my fishing stuff crap...

next question please or are you going to start another thread about the downhill spiral this forum is spinning down

[cheerbren]

Nice. I type one thread in 3 years. Not worth it!

Just in case anybody's keeping tabs I got my direct deposit today and I'm in the 2nd to last group.

[LUconn]

So $1,243.70 < $1,500 (2 adults, 1 dependant) What could they possibly be taking out? Taxes? From my tax rebate?

[LUconn]

nevermind, it's not as simple as the reports on the news make it out to be.

I'm sure this is a dumb question but I'm in the next to last group as well and filed electronically. How do we know the funds have been deposited other then just checking our account balance every week?

Go here:

It should tell you the date it is supposed to be deposited, then you can check your bank statement that day.
