Economic Stimulus Payment Has Arrived
Finally. We checked our ING DIRECT savings account last night and noticed that we had received a $1,200 direct deposit from the US Treasury, which was labeled, “Tax Refund”. We’ve been expecting to see this deposit for a while now (Where Is Our Economic Stimulus Payment Direct Deposit?).
I don’t know if it’s just a coincidence but we received the deposit on the same date, June 20th, that the paper check schedule said we’d receive our paper check. Weird. Regardless, we now have our economic stimulus in the bank and we can stop worrying.
If you haven’t recieved your economic stimulus payment yet, refer to the paper check schedule below as you may be receiving your paper check OR direct deposit on that date.
As for our plans for the $1,200, we’ll likely be able to finish paying off one of our auto loan debt now. Also we’ve already purchased Kroger gift cards for $1,200, and we went on vacation, so this will help to boost our savings a bit. I’ll be sharing more in the coming days about our debt reduction and savings plans.
