IRS Announces Deadline for Requesting Stimulus Payment

If you're still waiting for your $1,200 stimulus payment and haven't registered for it on the IRS website, you'd better get moving -- the Internal Revenue Service has set a Wednesday deadline to file direct deposit requests.

They'll be sent out between the end of May and mid-June, the agency says.
