Bummer. It's for residents. I'm in the same boat as you.
They're trying to kick start the domestic economy - sending dollars to expats won't help.

DArn, it was worth a try. Anyways, I'll still fill out my direct deposit info, who knows, maybe they'll screw up and give me the check anyways.

Can't hurt Very Happy

Let us know if you get anything!!
I think we all deserve payment just for taking the time out of our lives to fill out their stupid forms...

Jes' came upon this thread. I haven't been a resident for 19 years, but file annually. The IRS seized the checks that I and my Japanese spouse were to receive and sent us a letter informing us of the same.

Don't care and didn't earn it, but they better keep better records than Wachovia did! (See my earlier posting of this board!)
