I finally got my stimulus check

[Anonymous 1]

It took forever to get to me. It's the only real benefit I have gotten from the US government. I've never even been to the US!

It is nice to get a little bit of extra money. I don't know how I'm going to spend it yet.

Eta. I'm a citizen who files taxes

The checks that came out in March/April ? Why did it take so long?

I'm sure you made this post with the hopes of hearing, "You don't even live in the US and you got a stimulus check?" But I'll start the responses by saying, "Good for you! If you paid taxes and met the criteria, it's about time you got your check!"

If you have never lived in the u.s. how do you qualify for any benefits?

I assume coming over seas in the mail was the main issue.

That wasn't my intention at all and I will edit to post to avoid confusion.

Thanks I am glad it actually came .

It's crazy that it took that long. But it's good that you finally got it. I surely hope you weren't in any dire need. I'm pretty sure there's going to be another to follow soon.

So we have a US citizen who has never lived in the US AND a former US citizen who has never lived in the US, both on this little corner of the web? What are the odds?
