We received our $1200 each via direct deposit. We receive our SS through direct deposit as well. I don't understand the $210.30 amount.

I received my stimulus via direct deposit over a month ago. My wife, who e-filed taxes last year but had to pay, has not received anything yet. Every time she tries to check online or submit her account information for direct deposit they system rejects her. She gets mad at me when I tell her she'll probably get a paper check sometime in September.
My understanding is that you will receive the entire $1200 if you make under $50K per year. Between $50K and $100k will receive some portion of the $1200, and folks with income over $100k will receive nothing.

I just got my money from the Treasury today and it was a check, not a debit card. The check will be in the bank today. I paid my taxes via my bank account so the IRS couldn't do direct deposit. The system to add my bank account number to get a direct deposit kept giving me the not eligible error so I never could add my bank account number.
I was not expecting my check for weeks yet.

We got a paper check last week, even though we both are drawing SSI wasn't expecting it until July.
Now that I've activated the card and read all the legalese and associated stuff, I have to say that the fees seem reasonable. There are no fees for purchases at any merchant that lets you use a Visa cebit card with a PIN and no fees for ATM withdrawals from in-network ATM's, which you can find on-line or with an app. There are a reasonable number near us. No fee to transfer to my bank account.
I'm still kinda bothered by the whole idea. As has been suggested, what happens to unspent balances? And how many people would not realize what it is and toss it or fail to activate it? I would have liked to know I was getting a card and not a check, just to avoid the confusion. But i'm not going to send it back.
There is no fee to transfer the entire contents to your checking account...so why keep the money on that debit card? I took care of that as soon as I activated my card and it had a zero balance a few moments later.
