Anyone get theirs? can't believe I got mine, despite not being a resident of the US. I put my checking account and tracking number and got the 300USD

We still haven't gotten ours. But if the government tells you your check is in the mail, who could worry?

I got mine a couple of weeks ago, through direct deposit into my US account. I was amazed that the signature I had to send through the Mexican postal system got to the proper government office without much delay. I'm really tickled that this money will be spent in Mexico instead of the US, thereby defeating Bush's purpose in having these checks issued in the first place!

...but, what is the % of that? 1/10 of 1%? (foreign deposits of US stimulus checks)

I received mine last week. They are sent out according to the last two digits of your social security number I believe. Spending my U.S. economic stimulus abroad. Such sweet irony!

We got ours yesterday. I wonder if it's a sign of the level of confidence in our government that the bank puts a five-workday hold on these checks.
