Apparently, they're gonna snail mail me a check...

I might have screwed up. When all of this started up, and when the status of SS recipients was a little unsure, I went online and filed a $0 income tax return. That may have overridden my SS direct deposit status.

I just went to their magical website and it said they'll issue a check on that date.

We'll see.

Used Turbo for some 20 years,understand there is a issue with the Software that prevents ones Bank account info from messing with the outdated IRS Software. Is that why the IRS was calling for anyone who knew how to code or work with COBAL.
