Got my tax stimulus money

[Kaysei]

I'll bet you get your check today or tomorrow. The letter should have said it will be mailed on June 20.

Good point. I didn't get it today either.

[bosoxfan]

I closed the bank account I had originally had direct deposit with and got my check today. I'm a **98.

[sk8erchick]

has anyone owed past due student loans and got a stimulus check? i've been on a payment plan for a few months with a student loan collection agency. its not reporting to any of the cra's. and this debt is way over 7 yrs. and i check the irs website to see if there's hope of a stimulus and it says its scheduled to be mailed on june 27, 2008? so do i have a chance? and i got an ref code of 1611 if i was to call the irs. i'm going to call to see if i have any good or bad news.

Dang! We're **98 too, and I can't even get an update on the website. Nor have I gotten the second notice stating exactly how much and when.

[Kaysei]

Well, darn. It's official. IRS kept my $600. They shouldn't have sent the letter saying they'd send it to me! I was gonna send half of it back, I swear.

[antknee]

[Lisa98]

They are still doing direct deposits?

 

Wow!

[TJF]

Apparently so! The DD did in fact hit DW ING account today.

[CTSMOM01]

I'm waiting for the special envelope in the mail...needed it like yesterday....has anyone scheduled for 6.27 rec'vd yet?

[antknee]

Nope, still waiting.

OK, I know the IRS is up in EVERYONE's business nowadays, but scheduling the birth of your children?!?!

 

That's going a LITTLE far, don't you think?

[CTSMOM01]

You are so silly!

[ta1jr]

Got the info today.....98. Getting $2100 scheduled for mail out on July 11, just like the site says. Did Turbo Tax online in February and had the money DD through their bank. Probably why I am getting a paper check.

Oh, I don't know....helped to get the extra $300! :rofl:

[antknee]

well...FINALLY got the check today..

[BeatleMom]

We're eligible for $2400. However, we will only get $1200 due to past due Student Loans. That's OK by me. My question is this. We filed the Injured Spouse form in February, so I assume our stimulus check will be delayed. Was anyone else in a similar situation? Can anyone tell me how long it may be delayed?

 

We weren't counting on the money, so there's no big rush, I'm just curious. BTW, we're in the last paper check category, so ours was scheduled to go out 7/11

 

 

 

Thanks!

[hegemony]

Seems like a person who makes less should get more than a person who makes more per year, but I guess the poor will stay poor lol.

 

No comment.

added to say the rich arent getting a dime of the rebates over 75k income or 150k married

You consider people rich ( husband and wife) working making 150,000? Did you know that the successful people in this country(you would call them rich) pay 93 % of taxes. So hardworking successful people get taxed more while lazy people pay less. No wonder it'so adventagious to sit around doing nothing.

 

 

I hear some fools think middle class is when you make 5 million dollars a year...

So teachers are lazy? Social workers....lazy? Nurses...lazy? Office support (receptionists, secretaries etc) ... lazy? Waiters....lazy? Just because you don't make a lot, doesn't mean you don't work hard and pay your share of taxes.

 

Yes, dollar for dollar, the rich pay more...but dollar for dollar, they make more too. Now, personally, I advocate a flat tax system. Everyone pays the same percent. You make $10 you pay X percent. You make $10million you pay the same X percent. No tax breaks, no exceptions.

 

And I know a few very successful people who don't do crap. Or wait...they "delegate."

Middle Class = 2 + kids, mortgage, car payment(s), credit cards, food, utilities etc =====BROKE! However, I understand that we are gonna be bailing out the downfall of greed? Guess we need to get ready for another, oh say, $600 - $1000 a month for this privilege, huh? There will be a whole lot more of US losing our homes if this legislation passes without very careful consideration. They need to slow down a WHOLE bunch on this one and think it through all the way.

 

Oh and BTW, I was one of the 66% that did NOT get a stimulus check.

I didn't get a stimulus check either. Wanted one, but my folks still claim me on their taxes last year (as I was in college) so I was disqualified. Oh well. Life goes on.
