There’s a site where you can check the status. Ours said it was mailed on 1/6, but we didn’t get it until just a few days ago.
If you’re talking about the IRS site, it tells us nothing. It says Status - Not Available

Are you due to receive the funds? There is a diminishing payout over certain thresholds depending on how you file.

Ah, I got nothing for you then. :/

I know IRS was having technical issues getting money to those customers earlier this month.

Lawmakers push Biden to offer recurring $2,000 stimulus checks

https://www.cbsnews.com/news/biden-stim ... 021-01-30/

WTF? Why don't the law makers make the law?
Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?

On a zoom call earlier this week, someone said this and then described it as a “deep” Godfather quote.

I let him know it is not a deep one. (It’s arguably the most “surface” Godfather quote that there is. Right up there with offer he can’t refuse, or I knew it was you - you broke my heart.)

Then he suggested the gun/canoli quote (as a deep one).

I don’t know what to do with this guy.
