RE: Still no Stimulus Payment
Still holding my breath with little expectation of ever seeing it.
I had a good year which pushed me into a higher tax bracket.
I’m still stinging from the jump in taxes owed this year.
Up side I paid for quite a few people’s checks.We're in the same boat. I wasn't expecting anything until August. This was a total surprise. Our $2400 was prorated down to $1844.38, to be exact.
I'll take ours to the credit union today to see if they can deposit it without too much fee or hassle.

RE: Still no Stimulus Payment
We received the VISA debit card. I guess they ran out of cash a long time ago. How much cash can I convert this card into? I never have used a debit card.Call the 1-800 number to activate it. At that point the automated system will tell you how much $ is on it. Have a pen and paper ready. It will tell you once and it talks fast. They will charge you each time you check the balance after that.

RE: Still no Stimulus Payment
We received a Visa debit card yesterday. At first I thought it was a bank teaser card and almost tossed it in the trash. I was expecting a check with President Trumps name on it.
Our plan is to donate it to the Bridge Women's Shelter, but it's not a straightforward process converting this card into a tax deductible donation. I can't just hand them the card and they prefer not to handle cash. A check would have made this much simpler and it would have eliminated a middle-man bank getting their cut.

RE: Galveston - Bolivar Ferry
They always put me in the inside lane, pull straight on and off. Just follow the attendants direction and you will be fine. I'm more nervous about the car doors so close to my camper.
Don't forget to turn off your propane just before you board. And don't forget to turn it back on once you get off :)

RE: Jamaica Beach RV Resort
It wasn't a dumb question. It wasn't a question at all.
I realized the thread lacked context, so I tried to sneak in a clue. Perhaps it was too subtle.

RE: Jamaica Beach RV Resort
To everybody but Executive maybe you could clue the rest of us in as to where places are when you brag on them. ThanksYou must have missed this. I left a clue:
There is also Sandpiper on the east end of the island, on Stewart Beach. Sandpiper is tight. It just has a squeezed in feel to it, but it is nice and right on Galveston's most popular beach. There is a lot within walking distance from Sandpiper.
Or you can just ask!

RE: Jamaica Beach RV Resort
Jamaica Beach is nice and has a lot to offer. The only down side for us is it's not on the water and away from the historic city. You have to drive to a public beach or go to the state park.
I know you didn't ask, but:
We prefer Dellanera. It's nowhere as nice as Jamaica but it's on the beach side of the highway with direct beach access, no vehicles allowed on that section of beach, and it's closer to town. Dellanera is more like a parking lot whereas Jamaica is a true resort.
There is also Sandpiper on the east end of the island, on Stewart Beach. Sandpiper is tight. It just has a squeezed in feel to it, but it is nice and right on Galveston's most popular beach. There is a lot within walking distance from Sandpiper.

RE: Tow Vehicle Advice For Newbie
My 2011 F150 EB has 98K trouble free miles on her. 22K miles of that is towing either a 7500lb TT or a 9000lb FW. But it's just wife and I.
With that said, with a growing family, you are in 3/4 ton territory. Get the right tool for the job. Find a LWB 3/4 ton gasser of your choice and enjoy.

RE: Money from government
This may apply to you, from the IRS website:Thanks. It never occurred to me they couldn't use the same bank info they use to come and get money.
I just entered all my info. Of course you can't copy/paste bank numbers, you have to type them in. Oh well...At least now you know.
We decided to wait for the actual check.

RE: Money from government
You will not receive a direct deposit payment if you PAY your taxes online .They have my bank information to come and get it, but not to give it? That's weird.This may apply to you, from the IRS website:
Q:I made an electronic payment from my bank account to the IRS (includes a Direct Debit Installment Agreement (DDIA)). Will my payment be direct deposited to the same account? Can I use Get My Payment to provide my bank account information?
A:The account information used to make an electronic payment to the IRS cannot be used as the account information for the direct deposit of your payment. If we do not have bank account information for you and your payment has not been processed yet, Get My Payment will allow you to submit your bank account information once you have properly verified your identity so that you can get your EIP via direct deposit. Otherwise, we will mail your payment to address we have on file for you.

RE: Money from government
You will not receive a direct deposit payment if you PAY your taxes online unless you provide the IRS additional information. You will receive a check via snail-trail. Those that received money back last year via direct deposit will get the subsidy direct deposited.
I'm in the same boat. I do not receive money back each year. I have to pay additional in April. Therefore, we must wait.

RE: Money from government
The question should be how many here will receive a check that are not adversely affected financially from this situation we are in.
Wouldn't it be better to direct this money to the small business employee's being directly affected? The government could work directly with the affected businesses and their bank. Pay employee's salary, businesses overhead, such as rent, either whole or partial, for say, 6 weeks.
I don't see throwing $$ into the wind solving the problems of those most affected.
