[lywb2168]

Yes got both.

[ejholt]

I got one last year but have not gotten one this year yet.  I hope it comes soon, I live on SS and it would help me to pay my bills

[ssarber]

Yes, got 2. I would prefer the country open back up and then we wouldnt need to be handing out money. I didnt vote for socialism.

[hawkeye3210]

Yes, I got both of mine.

I need another stimulus check just to pay the taxes on the extra $600 payments I got while I was unemployed. In normal years, we've always gotten a refund. This year we have to pay $2200. I was expecting it, but it still sucks.

I think a lot of people are going to be surprised when they file their taxes this year. Seems most thought that was just free money.  I don't get why you did not qualify for the stimulus though esp if you were drawing unemployment. Were you not able to claim when you filed your taxes? I had a place when I filed that asked if I got the stimulus checks.

Yeah most of us didn't. Stupid people need to wake up.  Everything is not going to be free!

Exactly! Someone (meaning the tax payers) always end up paying the bill. I cant understand why people dont see that.

I did get the last two stimulus checks. I meant it as a joke that I needed more money from the government to pay my taxes. Lol. But I was just saying to my husband that the extra $600 they were giving everyone should have been optional. But they just gave it to you untaxed, whether you needed it or not. I stashed it away, because I knew I'd end up paying the IRS at tax time. But yeah, I think a lot of people didn't realize that the extra $600 was different than the stimulus and is taxable.

[mrsmere]

Yes I did.

[Donnamarg323]

the payment is not income and taxpayers will not owe tax on it. The payment will not reduce a taxpayer's refund or increase the amount they owe when they file their 2020 or 2021 tax return next year.

Unemployment IS taxable.

The 2 are NOT the same.My accountant said the stimulus must still be reported but it is NOT taxable as UE is.

[dsawan]

need third

[pectacon]

I got my second one in the form of a debit card. Never seen them do that before. I nearly tossed it out thinking it was a junk mail scam. 

[notriko_mu]

Yes, the first one by check and then, the second one through direct deposit - even though I did nothing to change anything between the two.
