Bailout / Stimulus Discussion (Hints Missed & Shartz Fired)

Like a zillion redditors I just had my PayPal application officially denied because they were “Unable to verify identity”. In the same email they also sent me my credit score, which is an odd thing to send someone whose identity you can’t verify. Oh well, it’s down to Chase for me.

I think you’ll be in good shape with Chase, unless that third lender already submitted your EIN/SSN and the SBA system blocks your Chase approval.

Anyone have any luck with the IRS stimulus portal link yet?

Nope. Been checking daily and keep getting the same error message as everybody else.

I have also never heard one single word about my EIDL application other than an announcement about the $1k/employee limit.

I did all the same stuff as you, including noticing the names of the people on their board, believe it or not. If you removed documents from the application using the edit function, you might want to make sure the application has really been changed - you have to go all the way to the end to save changes. And it won’t let you do that without uploading SOME documents, so I uploaded some blank PDFs so it would let me proceed. I also changed my EIN on the app to 000000000.

Prior to doing the above, when I downloaded a copy of my application it still had my actual EIN. Afterward it showed the 000000000 number. I also emailed them at customerservice@lendio.com

I really hope that scuttled it.

Nope.

I’ll probably file my 2019 taxes this weekend, so maybe that will help things. Looks like I’ll be getting a sizeable refund, too, and since I’m not going to apply it all to estimated taxes like last year, I’ll be inputting my bank info.

I filed mine yesterday and am checking daily to see if that changes anything.

Days taxes filed: 1
Days it made a difference: 0

No I owed and changed addresses since 2018 so don’t even know if they already sent a check to my old place.

That guy is the nice version of Riverman and he is still :fire:

Good idea on changing the EIN to zeroes. Thanks! I think I’ll probably keep logging in once a day and resubmitting too, in case the application goes to the back of the line for review.

Get my payment finally worked for me

Sorry man. I’ll keep my fingers crossed yours are ready to go tomorrow

What did it tell you (if the details aren’t too personal)?

It just said that I was eligible, asked me to fill in my AGI, asked whether I paid or not (for my 2019 taxes but use 2018 if I hadnt filed yet) and how much I payed or received from refund. Then asked for my routing and account number.

Nice. Still a gfy for me :(

Sorry man. Puttin out the good thoughts for ya.

T-Minus 17 minutes to Xcom time.

IT FINALLY WORKED FOR ME

Oh wait, but lol.

Entered my info, system said it didn’t match. I received a refund in 2018, but applied it all to estimated taxes. Thus, I think my mistake was that I needed to put that I received a refund, but that it was $0.

So I tried again. Hit submit.

Technical difficulties.
