The 2009 stimulus package signed by president Obama contains quite a few financial stimulus for many different parts of the population. Infrastructure spending, tax cuts make up most of the bill but one of the key aspects to the package is a special cash payment. This won’t be like the general stimulus check of last year but will be given to select groups such as retired veterans on disability.
$250 stimulus check in 2009
A one time payment of $250 will be paid out in 2009 for people in the following groups:
- People currently receiving Social Security.
- State government retirees not eligible for Social Security.
- Veterans receiving pensions from the Department of Veteran Affairs.
- People receiving SSI payments. Supplemental Security Income payments are for people who have little to no income and is intended to meet the basic needs for food, clothing and shelter.
When will I get my stimulus check?
Treasury is supposed to start sending out these checks as soon as possible. This site will be updated when more information becomes available.

just called NJ tax, They recieved my payment from my taxes that were due, but it is still in processing (what ever that means), so i guess that justified them taking the stimulus too.
you would think that if they took the money out of my account it would have been processed?
but once everything is processed then they will reimburse me the stimulus money. They dont have a timeline on when it will be processed.
isnt that great?
Keep calling them and they stated it was “issued” June 30th. Funny because I called them on July 2 and they told me to wait to the tenth as there was nothing they could do until them. Called my bank they state nothing is there. What is going on?
Well, I still have not received anything, and have had three inquiries send regarding where my check is, no word. I was told last week, they hope to have everyone paid by the middle of August. So that’s comforting to here I guess. I was told my check was sent to a wrong address, which is impossible because I have lived in my house for over three years. Then they said it was the wrong checking acct. Then they said a check was going to be issued. I am at the point they can keep the money because the way it’s going with no answer, my not even get it.
I am a disable non-service connected veteran with Paraplegia and low income buget and I need the extra cash and I have no one to assist me in obtaining it, nor does the PVA, does not advise its members on how to help one self. All with this problem should write and presure for asistance.
Well, for those of you who are still reading this site and havenot gotten your money. I was told by the VA today they checks will be reissued mid august or mid september. Gotta love it.
My name is Mary J. Newton and I still have not received my check as of Jan 11,2010. I have been calling since July 2009. I was told it was sent to a wrong address. All the system had to do in my case according to the VA Reps that I talked to, was to request a paper check for my address in McGehee, Arkansas.
I have grown very disappointed in the system and their concerns for us as Vets. I was also told that another check had been sent out on Nov 24 2009 to the same bank that I had not used in two years, I recieve my Disability checks every month on time at this address and have never had to search for my check.
I can’t understand it would take in excess of 6 months to send out a paper check. If you find out anything on how to speed up this process, please contact me at the above email address. Maybe it will work for me. Thanking you in advance.
So federal tax rejected mine due to me forgeting to enter the $250, still havent figured out where to enter it in the taxslayer program i’m using, this $250 more work than its worth and they will probably now make me pay taxes on it since i worked 2009
