Hereâ??s how the checks will roll out:

If you file your return on time and request that your federal income tax refund is directly deposited, the stimulus payments will directly go into your bank account by May 2 if the last two digits of your Social Security number are 00-20.

If the last two digits are 21-75, the date to remember is May 9.

If the last two digits are 76-99, youâ??d get that money by May 16.

But if you do not use direct deposit to get your federal income tax refund â?? or you are paying taxes owed when you file that 2007 return â?? youâ??re going to get your tax rebate check later. The rollout times are more complicated, too.

If your last two digits of your Social Security number are 00-09, you could expect that rebate check to be mailed by May 16.

Itâ??s by May 23 if the last two digits are 10-18.

Itâ??s May 30 if the digits are 19-25.

Itâ??s June 6 if the digits are 26-38.

Itâ??s June 13 if the digits are 39-51.

Itâ??s June 20 if the digits are 52-63.

Itâ??s June 27 if the digits are 64-75.

Itâ??s July 4 if the digits are 76-87.

Itâ??s by July 11 if the digits are 88 -99 and the person did not use direct deposit of a refund this year â?? or if you wrote a check to cover money owed for the 2007 tax year.


Hope you may find this helpful.
My tax preparer had a chart, and according to her chart, I wouldn't get my rebate until August. The refund was coming sooner, probably this week, but the rebate was not until August.

It would be nice if it came as soon as you say. $1200 for the wife and me --- I'm thinking of buying something from China! (Joking!)
