After it being shot down about a dozen times since July, looks like it's going to be achieved this week. Along with lots of other things like UI extensions, home owners assistance, renters assistance, PPE assistance, etc etc

I'm not even caring anymore, if the money hits my account, so be it.
But they said this long ago and have been giving daily updates and it''s just being delayed lol
They did shaft my baby momma though, since she had just got hired at work, they didn't take all of the money into account and only approved her for $62 a week and doesn't qualify for the extra $$ they're giving weekly since July. She was making $1,000 a week before the lay offs came cause of the virus. So this sucks.

That $100 amount that was required was only for the executive order extensions that only lasted 6 weeks, refers to your Claim Award amount, for example if UI says "Claim award 106 dollars a week" you quality, even if you only bring home 12 dollars a week after declaring income. I'm assuming you probably know this, but just to make sure you're not missing out and giving up. The original 600 a week will resume with this package and I -think- doesn't have a minimum claim week amount. Here's to hoping it's retro payable to July 1st, imagine that? I was put on furlough from March to July, then when I was reactivated it was only for 3 days a week instead of the original fulltime, so I was still eligible. Even though my regular UI gives me like 14 dollars a week (lol) my claim award is 236 so I qualified for the extra 300.

I used to check daily on this. Not anymore. Like someone said above, when that money hits my account, I'll care. Hopefully the money gets to the people who desperately need it as soon as possible.

Yeah, I knew that. She received a letter stating that she didn't qualify for it. I'm also hoping that you're correct on the minimum not being a thing when this passes. I'm personally not worried as my BM has some money saved up and I'm receiving $1,000 a week tax free for my bills and stuff, so meh!

Same. I don't expect it to happen, so if it does I'll be pleasantly surprised. But until then I'm not going to pay further attention to it.

The point of a stimulus check isn't to pay bills, even though most will actually do that. The point of a stimulus check is to stimulate the economy. They want people to go out and buy stuff on a mass scale so that the economy is given a huge jolt, which theoretically is meant to keep businesses going, create new jobs, etc

Yes that is the technical point of it, but enough people are out of work and don't have any income that you really shouldn't turn around and spend it. If you aren't socking away money for a bad day that's where it should go, stimulus checks rarely actually stimulate much of anything.

I can’t imagine either side being willing to compromise and pass anything until after the election out of fear of helping the othe side or appearing weak. Depending on how close the results come out and any associated drama progress will probably be delayed even longer. So if it happens, it will probably roll in with 3080 availability.

We are getting one or i consider myself a hippie going forward😼
T hose who abuse power, are nothing but scumbags! The challenge of power is how to use it and not abuse it. The abuse of power that seems to create the most unhappiness is when a person uses personal power to get ahead without regards to the welfare of others, people are obsessed with it. You can take a nice person and turn them into a slob, into an insane being, craving power, destroying anything that stands in their way. Affiliate Code: 3T15O1S07G

This virus has done wonders for my spending. I used to commute 60 miles a day, $300 in tolls a month, daily lunches out about $10 a day so about $200+ In lunches a day. Then add on gas refill every week. Now I’m spending no money on tolls, not using any gas at all maybe fill once a month. Eating lunch at the house and the whole family is not going out for dinner. The savings have been tremendous and we have now gotten used to it. Or as my wife would say “I’ve been social distancing before it was required”.
