Gold Member Username: Thumpinwith8s2 RE8s,PG Xenon 400.1, 135.5dbs!!!! Post Number: 1102 Registered: Jun-07 | i heard its 600 per person and 300 per child so ours will be 1500, of course that will be split 50/50 so 750 each... I think the irs site say we will get it in JUNE, and my half...well unless the wife changes her mind about the divorce...it will go to get me a new place to live |
|
Bronze Member Username: DiehlermanPost Number: 39 Registered: Jan-08 | yea....I got a letter in the mail saying 600 a person...I should get mine in early may. if you have it setup for direct deposit when you filed your taxes you get it earlier. |
|
Gold Member Username: Stateprop486PA Post Number: 1302 Registered: Jan-08 | The IRS decides how much everybody gets,single may not get even $600 it could be under $600 too and they start sending money out according to ur Social Security number in that order depending what your number is...mine is going into the bank when i get it. |

Gold Member Username: FrkkevinResonant Engineering..., Fort Worth... Email Post Number: 4873 Registered: Nov-05 | I think it was minimum $300 per person but up to $600 + $300 per child so.. if I got max.. $1500  .. not likely tho.. it is the government |
|
Silver Member Username: Gh0st_31USF, FL USA Post Number: 752 Registered: May-06 | I believe were talking about the Stimulus Plan. Payments will start to be distributed in May and you have to have your taxes filed to get it. Single Independents get $300 (Or less), Married Couples get $600 (or less) plus $300 per child (or less). The amount that you get is based on your income. |
|
Gold Member Username: TejcurrentPost Number: 1241 Registered: Apr-07 | I got my email from them - 1200 for me and my wife. It's either going into savings or working on the house. I can't see blowing it. |

Silver Member Username: Gh0st_31USF, FL USA Post Number: 753 Registered: May-06 | I was incorrect with my earlier numbers. Here is from the IRS website. "Economic Stimulus Payments Information Center Updated March 10, 2008 Starting in May, the Treasury will begin sending economic stimulus payments to more than 130 million households. To receive a payment, taxpayers must have a valid Social Security number, $3,000 of income and file a 2007 federal tax return. IRS will take care of the rest. Eligible people will receive up to $600 ($1,200 for married couples), and parents will receive an additional $300 for each eligible child younger than 17. Millions of retirees, disabled veterans and low-wage workers who usually are exempt from filing a tax return must do so this year in order to receive a stimulus payment." |

Silver Member Username: Phil_salisburyPost Number: 633 Registered: Sep-06 | 1,200 here, I was going to use my half toward the CC bill, but after doing the taxes I gotta use it now to cover the fuking school taxes for the over paid pension fat fr!ggin teachers. Cracks me up, Uncle Sam is giving us money that he doesn't have in the first place which in turn puts uncle sam deeper in debt to which we in turn will have to pay higher taxes just to foot the this check were getting. Talk about fuzzy fr!ggin economic math. |

" you make a valid point but i rather then pay me money then spend more on the war. |
|
Silver Member Username: Phil_salisburyPost Number: 634 Registered: Sep-06 | Drivin, One has nothing to do with the other. Were still paying for the war at 10 billion a month on top of getting this bogus check, nothing more. |
|
Gold Member Username: RedlinerWilmington, Ma Post Number: 4157 Registered: Jun-05 | also i think you have to claim as a indepedent so anyone being claimed under dependent of there parents wqont get anything i believe is correct |
|
Gold Member Username: Nyyfan1315 MAG USA Post Number: 9112 Registered: Jul-06 | Is this the check that is going to stimulate the economy again by making people spend more money? |
|
Gold Member Username: RedlinerWilmington, Ma Post Number: 4158 Registered: Jun-05 | yup and then youll get taxed on it next yr lol |
|
Silver Member Username: Phil_salisburyPost Number: 635 Registered: Sep-06 | Yes Yanks, The whole point of the check is for you to buy that new ported sub box for the Mag 15 I will be building. You get the check, you give me the money for box, you get the box. Get it!!!! |

Silver Member Username: Phil_salisburyPost Number: 636 Registered: Sep-06 | See, Charlie knows exactly how the program works!!! |

You get the check, you give me the money for box, you get the box. Get it!!!!" Lol. Oh I see now Phil. That was mighty nice of the government to pay for my box lol. hate to sound like too big of an idiot, but what qualifies someone to receive this check? I'm guessing everyone in the work force? Parents? |
|
Silver Member Username: Phil_salisburyPost Number: 638 Registered: Sep-06 | Yanks, did ya file a tax return?? If ya didn't, you ain't gettin a check? everyone assumes their getting this money, if they didn't file a tax return, they ain't gettin squat!!!! |
|
Gold Member Username: Nyyfan1315 MAG USA Post Number: 9116 Registered: Jul-06 | I don't work so I didn't file anything. I knew I wasn't getting the check I was just curious as to what determined who got the check. |
|
Silver Member Username: Phil_salisburyPost Number: 641 Registered: Sep-06 | And if your parents claimed you as a dependent, they get the money..... NOT YOU!!! |
|
Gold Member Username: Nyyfan1315 MAG USA Post Number: 9117 Registered: Jul-06 | We'll see about that Phil lol. I got them that money hehe. |

Gold Member Username: Skibum12189Cleveland Post Number: 2765 Registered: Mar-06 | im gettin it in like october bc apparently it depends on the last 4 digits of your ss# and mine are higher. it ranges between 300-600 if that hasn't been covered and yes, you had to have filed your taxes. i'm interested to see if it'll work. the idea is that people who get it need to spend it, not save it or pay off loans. but i have a feeling considering the economy right now, people will scrimp and use it to pay off debt/bills, etc. but then again who knows, most of the money we spend ends up going across the pacific , but we'll see... either way, im 18, make like 6k a year (high school) so 300-600 bucks is a HUGE bonus for me, not to mention my refund check. |
|
Gold Member Username: Nd4spd18Northwest PA Post Number: 7177 Registered: Jul-06 | " if YOU filed killer, your parents CAN'T claim you. " Wrong...... question 5 on the 1040EZ form asks you if anyone else has claimed you as a dependent. |
|
Gold Member Username: Killerzracing71Post Number: 2090 Registered: Aug-05 | HMMM all i know is that i gota refund but cal I dont think u qulify you only make 6k i think u need 10+ or sumthin dont quote me ill look it up |

Gold Member Username: AdddisorderPalm Beach, Florida Post Number: 6144 Registered: Jan-06 | i bet alot of you wont be getting one because your parents claim you as a dependent in which case your not eligible, even if you file your own return. |

Gold Member Username: TejcurrentPost Number: 1243 Registered: Apr-07 | GODDAMN you people really don't like to search things! Sorry for being rude, but it scares me that many of you are old enough to vote and don't want to find out how the hell you're getting money (or your parents since most of your parents claim you). SO MANY OF YOU are sitting here debating how this thing is going to work, but when it comes to car audio you post links and research. Here's a helpful link to end all debating, its accurate from everything I read: http://www.bargaineering.com/articles/2008-tax-rebate-stimulus-package-explained .html Most of you wont get a rebate because your parents claim you. Like I said- I'm not trying to be rude or put anyone down at all, just... this topic is about uncle sam 'giving' you money, at least try to understand where it's coming from. To me it's a stupid idea, these big brains can't figure out people wont spend it like they plan, and it's going to devalue the dollar even more I really like this readers response: Phil responds: Posted: January 25th, 2008 at 10:08 am Two things: 1. The only reason why Washington is even talking about this is because (a) they want to be seen as "doing" something about the "problem" of a stock market that _had been_ in free fall and (b) the politicians -- on both sides of the aisle -- honestly think that Washington must necessarily always do something about anything that flashes across the 24/7 news networks. 2. The "stimulus" package will help individuals in the short term, but that's it -- and that assumes that nearly all individuals will immediately turn around and spend the rebate (hence, getting themselves back into potentially indebted situations that make some individuals salivate over getting _their own money_ back from the government to begin with!). In the long term, the US must absolutely consider some dramatic changes in the way that we tax and regulate all aspects of our economy. After all, nobody got a job from a poor person, and it is _always_ the "evil rich" who provide the capital (capitalism) to create businesses that create jobs but who simultaneously get brow-beaten by various politicians for doing exactly that. |

Gold Member Username: Skibum12189Cleveland Post Number: 2767 Registered: Mar-06 | I'm not really sure if i am or not, can someone tell me either way? my dad told me he's not getting anything and he claimed me as a dependent (i put that was someone else claimed me as a dependent on my 1040) my dad told me i should get money because i filed my own 1040 and made over 3k, but my brother disagrees. from what i've read, i should, but i really don't know. little help? |
