Missing tax rebate?
May 26, 2008
Just in case you haven’t received your tax rebate yet.
Where’s My Tax Rebate, Uncle Sam? – Yahoo! News
I used TurboTax desktop software to do my 2007 taxes. I filed online in mid-April, and I opted to have my federal and state refunds deposited directly into my checking account. Like many Americans, I’ve also been waiting anxiously for the rebate associated with the government’s economic-stimulus plan. According to the IRS payment distribution schedule, I should have received my rebate weeks ago.
Last week, however, I learned that I’ll have to wait nearly two months longer because of something that I consider a glitch, but that Intuit and the IRS say I should have known about.

We’re not suggesting you should have know how the IRS would be processing rebate checks if you had your tax fees deducted from your refund. I wish we would have known well in advance too. But the reality is that this was news to us. As soon as we learned how the IRS would be processing rebate checks, we communicated to our customers.

I don’t really blame the sortware companies. I think it’s the IRS with the problem. Why can they direct deposit our tax refunds but not the rebate checks?
