prevnextOh OK I was supposed to be fine with idea that because of an asset movement I didn’t qualify for stimulus but that it went to more deserving people who really needed it. Then dead people got payments. Now foreign nationals got payments. Beginning to think stimulus wasn’t uh fair.

Citizens of foreign countries receive stimulus checks meant for US citizens, and Trump is worried about my dog voting. He should be, Buddy is voting for #BidenHarris2020

prevnextslimmed-down. No the problem was the government didn't take the necessary precautions to keep this from happening. Now between McConnell and government officials we might not get one. But the country Austria is getting our stimulus money how can that be?

@YourVoiceAtIRS I never received my stimulus payment & the system can't find me, even though I've been paying taxes since 2000.
Yet, you can send checks to people in Austria who briefly lived in the US in the '60s?https://t.co/bbvRA0kHkB

prevnextHundreds of stimulus checks sent to people in Austria for some strange reason. At least some recipients are neither US citizens, nor resident aliens.
Are non-US citizens in other countries are getting these too?https://t.co/zasXx4bwrI

So were paying Austria stimulus checks IN THEIR NAMES, and American taxpayers have to beg to get help?

prevMr Trump worried about voter fraud. Well he should be concerned about Mr Mnuchin,s treasury agency. They have sent out at least 200 stimulus package checks to people living in Austria. Check it out. Giving back tax payers money is one thing, but giving to foreigners. WOW.
