The Stimulus Checks Are Coming– Schedule Announced
If you are asking yourself, “When is my Bush Check Economic Stimulus Check coming?”, the answer may be sooner than you think. The IRS has released information on when payments will be issued. The good news is– it’s coming earlier than expected.
How will I get my stimulus check?
The checks will be distributed in two ways– via direct deposit or paper check. That’s right– some of the money will be deposit directly into your checking accounts.
Who gets paid first?
The checks will be deposited based on the last two digits of tax filers social security numbers. For those who will be receiving their checks via direct deposit, the schedule is:
Last two digits of SSN/ Payment Transmission by:
00-20 / May 2
21-75 / May 9
76-99 / May 16
Check the IRS site for Paper Check schedules. If you filed later than April 15, you may receive your check a few weeks later.

Actually the direct deposit checks will be in this week. here is from a CNN Story. SO if you did direct deposit you may get it this week.
The department announced the early arrival of the payments Thursday after saying last month that it would begin sending out the money on May 2.
As of next week (THIS WEEK), 800,000 tax filers daily will begin to have their checks directly deposited Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. No checks will be distributed Thursday, and 5 million payments will be made Friday.
The payments will go out ahead of schedule because of a new computer program that updates records daily - faster than an older program that updates weekly, according to Andrew DeSouza, a Treasury spokesman.
