Tax Rebates Arriving Early
Everyone will be happy to know that the Treasury Department will be sending off the tax rebate checks earlier than anyone expected. Originally they had stated that they would be depositing the checks starting May 2nd - but now they have accelerated things and will be starting April 28th.
If the IRS has your direct deposit information then your check will be deposited earlier than those who will receive their check in the mail. However, the mailed checks will also be sent a week ahead of schedule and mailings will begin on May 9. All rebates will be distributed according to the last two digits of your social security number as originally stated. While the IRS hasn’t come out with a new schedule, I’ve updated their old one to reflect the newly announced dates. To see an updated estimated schedule below.
