Here's When You Can Expect Your Stimulus Check

04/29/08 - 11:23 AM EDT

MainStreet Staff

Starting April 28, millions of Americas may see their checking account balance bounce up as much as $1,200 due to the Bush administration's $168 billion economic stimulus package for the 2007 tax returns. The Internal Revenue Service announced that Americans who are eligible for stimulus payments may see to the money soon, as payments will begin rolling out based on the last two digits of the filer's Social Security number. Eligible filers whose Social Security numbers end in the digits 00-20 and who requested a direct deposit of their stimulus package on their 2007 tax returns should expect to receive their checks by May 2. That means they may get their stimulus as soon April 28. Other filers who requested a direct deposit of their stimulus can expect to have their money by May 9 and May 16, if the last two digits of their Social Security number are 21-75 and 76-99, respectively. Check out MainStreet's story to learn more about when you may receive your stimulus check .
