Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I shake myfist, you late-SSN-ian usurper!

I think for the early deposits, it depends on when you filed (i.e., people that filed close to the April deadline may have to wait a bit for things to be processed).

As I'm in the last batch (and I filed in February!) and not scheduled to receive anything until July, I'm afraid I have little sympathy...

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Fist shaking as well!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm with you. Also, I'm not planning anything around the money, so when it comes, it'll be like a bonus.

Well, I've been a bit overbudget and not saving enough towards my October vacation in Utah, so it will probably go towards making sure I have enough for that (the goal being to pay cash for everything). The fact that I'm getting it later just makes it enforced savings I guess.

I just yesterday got something in the mail saying I should expect it May 16.

I got that letter too, but I'm expecting mine via snail-mail. Any chance they've lost your direct deposit info?

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

I should have gotten mine last week, too. (Another SSN-ending-with-71 here.) I did have to pay this year, but I filed back in the beginning of February and paid with direct withdrawal, so I thought I'd be getting a direct-deposit check early.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I also got nothing.

YAY Aims! In your face, DouchNozzle!

I think I need to order that something Brenda linked to earlier. It's just that kind of day.
