Don't file your taxes yet, IRS says amid confusion over state benefits

1. Oh great, I FINALLY got my state debit card this week

I never got the $$$ two years ago and the state said "tough shit" that it was lost in the mail and there was no way to get it from CA or get a new one sent. H & R Block even checked it out for me and they couldn't believe there was no way to get the $$$ from the state resent. My Federal $$$ card for Covid was also lost in the mail but they were able to resend a new one after spending over 20 hours on hold on the phone. I am not exaggerating. Why can the Fed govt reissue a lost check/debit card but CA can't?!?!?!?!?

This is how much you are supposed to get from CA (if not lost in the mail that is)....

Also, CA is now saying "Drenched Californians get an extra month to file tax returns"
