The item quoted here is a case in point demonstrating the latter aspect: Although 2008 economic stimulus payments will be distributed by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) according to the last two digits of taxpayers' Social Security numbers, the payment schedule shown above is an outdated one from 2001. Distribution of 2008 economic stimulus payments via check (to taxpayers who file returns by the April 15 deadline) will begin on 16 May 2008. The payments will be issued based upon the last two digits of the main filer's Social Security number (SSN), according to the following schedule: Last two SSN digits:Payments will be mailed by:00 through 09May 1610 through 18May 2319 through 25May 3026 through 38June 639 through 51June 1352 through 63June 2064 through 75June 2776 through 87July 488 through 99July 11Taxpayers who are set up to receive IRS payments via direct deposit will get their payments a bit sooner, beginning on May 2: Last two SSN digits:Payment will be transmitted:00 through 20May 221 through 75May 976 through 99May 16Taxpayers who miss the April 15 filing deadline will probably receive their economic stimulus payments about two weeks later than the schedule shows.

Detailed information about the 2008 stimulus payments can be found in the Economic Stimulus Payments Information Center section of the IRS web site.
