I haven't submitted my 2019 return yet because I owe and hell if I'm letting them have my money until absolutely necessary.

I did submit my 2018 return last year though. I have never not submitted electronically, and I have the documents to back it up.

I just can't help but feel like I'm getting screwed here.

Submit your return but don’t pay. The fees for late filing are way way more than the fees and interest on the late payment. You can get away with not paying for a few years and only have a bit of extra money to pay but those filing fees add up real quick.

I ended up filing and submitted the pay anyway today. Figured I may as well do it now while I get a bit of a state return to soften the blow than wait until July and have to pay the whole amount all at once.

The income tax thread I was redirected to told me that because I didn't get a federal refund for the past 2 years, however, they might not have my direct deposit info (even though I used my acct number and routing number to SEND the money to them to begin with), so I should probably expect a paper check instead.

:suicide:

Did anyone else owe federal for the past 2 years, not send any additional info to the IRS, and still get their direct deposit stimulus check?

The account information used to make an electronic payment to the IRS cannot be used as the account information for the direct deposit of your payment. If we do not have bank account information for you and your payment has not been processed yet, Get My Payment will allow you to submit your bank account information once you have properly verified your identity so that you can get your EIP via direct deposit. Otherwise, we will mail your payment to address we have on file for you.
Also if your eligibility is not determined, like ours is, then you don’t get the option to enter bank info.

I've owed the past 2 years and when I checked today they needed by banking info. I believe they don't see or retain your banking info when you pay them, but they see it when they pay you.

I owed the last 2 years and didn't get my dd check while pretty much everyone I work with who got money back last year or this year has already gotten theirs. I had to re-enter my deposit info on the IRS site since when I checked my eligibility it said they didn't have it. So, your mileage may vary, but it's looking to be that way.

Ffs McConnel didn’t listen to piss baby Trump demanding that he kill the Fillibuster for 2 whole years before Dems retook the House. The GOP could have pushed through anything if they had simply done that but they never did. You think he’s gonna somehow want to try and convince 49 of his colleagues to go a hundred steps further than that in the extreme department as Trump stands at the precipice of being a complete meltdown failure?
As well the idea that McConnell would do such a cockamamie scheme just for Trump to get some appointments through is ludicrous because if McConnell wanted the appointments to get through the Senate he would just get them through the normal way.

Pretty much, they are terrified like the rest of us and looking for some narrative that makes them feel like they are in control or have some special insight.


We've pretty much hit the point where conspiracy theories are all interlinked in one giant grand unified conspiracy theory, so depending on the exact flavor of crazy you are dealing with the details of the plot are slightly different but the overall arc is the same. From what I gather Gates made the observation that people in less developed nations had more kids in part because they expected many of them to die to various diseases, and said that as a result a vaccination program will reduce population growth (and our impact on the environment) since people won't have so many kids. The conspiracy types saw this as him releasing his evil plan to depopulate the world through contaminated vaccines or something.

Specifically it's at the level of being signal boosted by Alex Jones and his type, so it's firmly in the mainstream conspiracy camp. Just a soft mash of the virus being a secret Chinese bio-weapon that was also a test run by the Illuminati to force a lockdown and prepare for the real thing. Also they want to discredit antivaxxers and make us beg for a vaccine which will just sterilize us, lobotomized us, or kill us. Also the numbers are inflated and also you just need to buy his miracle cure, except legally he can't say that anymore so he's gotten cute about it.

Same dance as it's always been, but it's centered around Gates at the moment because there aren't many rich dudes who fit the bill at the moment.
