My stimulus check was spent in 5 mins. What’s the latest for round 2? I need corona to stick awhile longer. Any chances for a round 3 stimulus?
 
There are studies that have shown in places they've increased the minimum wage to $15 that there were no adverse effects on employment weeks worked and hours worked. It was a positive effect that reduced household and child poverty in those areas.
You want have to worry about raising MW to 15 per hour if you get unemployment back down to what it was 4 weeks ago. Sheetz here was hiring at 16 bucks per hour. We start off hourly here at work 18 per hour. They dont even have hs diploma, job skill. some dint even speak english. Puerto Rico descent.
 
According to the website my eligibility could not be determined for the stimulus check. Wtf

They literally took money out of my account 2 months ago for 2019 taxes and they didn't have my info on file.
 
Maybe the government could reimburse those who paid their student debt by half for a limited time? I don’t believe dems should be asking for a 100% handout.
 
Hey @Rain Cold here is the answer to your earlier questions:

Here's a part I like. Finally something for college students who are claimed but still need money to survive.

The Emergency Money for the People Act also expands the program to millions more Americans who were excluded from the CARES cash rebates – such as college students and adults with disabilities who are still claimed as a dependent. The individual will receive the payment and their parent or guardian will receive the dependent credit.
 
Thanks but not quiet what I was looking for. Looking for what republican are proposing since they are mostly in charge.
The Democrats control the house; so as we saw before, they have great influence in whatever goes to the President's desk.
 
Let's do it! Need to buy everything you can before hyperinflation hits!

You know the end is near when you start seeing stuff like this.
Sure why not. ???. Sheesh this govt. has lost its mind. Sure everyone will be able to afford bread at $12 and milk at $20. Hyperinflation will be least of our worries.
 
Same here.
I'm assuming it means that they haven't reviewed your eligibility yet. You'd think it would be automated, but with the way government works, I honestly wouldn't be surprised if they have a literal hamster on a wheel somewhere and can't figure out how to get it to run.

On SS, they know exactly what I make.
 
You can't work with Trump, just not possible. His ego is too massive and doesn't listen to his knowledgeable advisers.

LOL
He assembled the dream team in dealing with this crisis. And all state how well he heeds their advice input. Biggest gift he has is surounding himself with folks who know their stuff and getting input.

Probably 1 guy going social by social and then keying the info into Quickbooks
 
I'm not surprised how many of you fell for this today. You know who you are. #fakenews.

“Economic Impact Payment checks are scheduled to go out on time and exactly as planned — there is absolutely no delay whatsoever,” a Treasury Department spokesperson said in a statement. “In fact, we expect the first checks to be in the mail early next week which is well in advance of when the first checks went out in 2008 and well in advance of initial estimates.”

What a waste.

Delayed or not, its still gross.

Wow, no to whoever called that fake news is wrong. Trump wanted his signature on the checks and the Treasury Department fought back. If that wouldn't have happened, this story would have come to fruition.

Mine says Payment Status Not Available. Maybe since I moved since my 2018 tax returns and just filed my 2019 file return yesterday. Who knows...

I think a lot of people have received the same message, including me. You'd think they would've had this figured a way to avoid this kinda crap, but I guess not. And since the IRS only updates the site once a day, we will have to wait until tomorrow.
