IRS-2008-66, May 27, 2008
The Internal Revenue Service has begun to transfer
economic stimulus payments to millions of Americans,
some of whom will see payments in their bank accounts
as early as today.
The IRS will issue payments of up to $600 ($1,200 for
married couples) plus $300 for eligible children
younger than 17, throughout the spring and summer. The
first wave of payments will go to people who opted for
direct deposit on their 2007 income tax returns.
“If you think you may be eligible, even if you don’t
normally file a tax return, please check it out. And,
use direct deposit to get your payment faster.”
Whether a taxpayer opted for direct deposit determines
how soon the payment will arrive. The first cycle of
economic stimulus payment will be e-mailed starting
May 9.

The IRS will send notices to taxpayers who are
eligible for an economic stimulus payment. By keeping
people informed, the IRS hopes to reduce calls to
customer service representatives who are still busy
helping taxpayers complete tax returns.
