Also remember the amount you get changes based on how much you earned last year.  And you may, like me, not be entitled to any money at all.  Or a lot less than the $1,200.

Couple of quotes from the IRS website.

"However, for higher income individuals, the Payment amount is reduced by 5% of the amount that your adjusted gross income exceeds $75,000 ($112,500 for taxpayers filing as head of household or $150,000 for taxpayers filing a joint return), until it is $0."

"The Get My Payment application will return “Status Not Available” if you are not eligible for a payment or we don’t have enough information yet to provide a status."

That’s only if you make more than $99K a year I believe according to the IRS website.

I did my e-filing on March 2 and got notice (via the check my refund webpage) that my return was accepted and refund approved on April 13.. so about 6 weeks.  Now that my refund is ready and it will be via DD, that means my stimulus funds can now be done as my bank info is on file now as well.

If you file taxes it should be easy to track on where’s my refund.

Unless you filed a tax return the have not started doing them based upon your SSA-1099. They are only saying later this month at this time.

A better question is does anyone know how long it takes for non-filers to receive it after the IRS has accepted it? The IRS just accepted mine on Tuesday night. I remember in the past with tax returns it was usually within a week but this is probably different not sure.

I heard it might be a little slow for those of us receiving those type of benefits who don’t file taxes anymore. The last time I filed taxes was in January 2015 shortly after moving back over here again. I’m retired military 100% disabled veteran permanent and totally disabled. My wife receives Social Security from the United States so she doesn’t pay taxes anymore either. The IRS accepted ours 3 days ago so I wonder how it’ll work for ours since my pension comes from the VA and my wife’s pension comes from Social Security? 
 

According to the information put out by the IRS we are eligible and they have already accepted it on Tuesday after I applied for it online. I think I’ll buy a new laptop and a new TV possibly and save whatever is left over and I probably will order them both online from the states. I remember when I used to file taxes once the IRS has accepted it it’s almost guaranteed that you will receive it soon.

I twittered the irs and csnbc and got reply that kept changing. One showed ineligible. The other showed some recipients who collect ssi or other government pensions that are automatically sent to banks are not showing using the app. So it's now just a wait and see thing. 

I would take that with a grain of salt because apparently NBC and CBS posted some news stories about it that were totally untrue. 

Thank you I was wondering about that because the IRS just accepted ours 3 days ago on the 14th. How long did it take for you to receive it after the IRS accepted it? I don’t have any doubts at all because they’ve been really clear about who’s eligible pretty much anyone with a US Social Security number is eligible even if you pay no taxes still eligible!! 

I thought it was just a theory but according to news reports this morning in the United States this virus is not naturally occurring and it was developed in a Wuhan laboratory. Something to do with research for finding vaccines not necessarily a bio weapon but regardless this was a man made error. This disaster was man made in China.
