    smooth.

    General question: Is eligibility determined per individual or household/family unit?

    Girlfriend got hers direct deposited. I get mine whenever they send them out for the slackers, seeing as how I didn't actually mail my return until the 15th. My refund doesn't even come for 2-3 weeks yet; I'm assuming the 'stimulus' will come later than that.

    That's what I wanted to hear. I pre-spent mine on my new car. I have other bills I put on hold til I get mine. I was hoping they would start showing up.

    I was supposed to get mine direct deposited by the 2nd, and no such luck. I'll give it a few more days and then try and find out what is up.

    I thought it was $75k or less? If you got the notice about the refund, you should be getting it, right?

    Turns out my tax guy made a boo-boo on my 06' filing and I'm in the hole with the IRS for $1604 so they might as well just keep my $600.
