| 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 2008 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. But there are more details to know about. Find out more here and visit this page regularly for the latest updates. |

Good Things Come to Those Who Wait,
But Rebate Checks Come to Those Who File The much-talked about irs tax rebate checks, under the economic stimulus package, was signed into law by President on Wednesday, February 13th. If you are entitled to the irs tax rebate check, you have to file a tax return for 2008 as your tax rebate will be determined based on your 2008 tax information. If you do not file- you will not get the irs tax rebate. There are millions of American's who qualify for the tax rebate checks, but who would not normally file a tax return. People who earn below a certain income or who are on Social Security are not always required to file a return, but if they want to take advantage of receiving their portion of the economic stimulus package, they will need to file a return anyway. Due to the requirement of filing a 2008 tax return in order to get the irs tax rebate check, the IRS estimates having to process an additional 10 million or more returns this year. Do you usually file your tax return late, or ask for an extension to file? If you do this, you'll be delaying your irs tax rebate check- but it is still unclear how the IRS will determine the schedule of mailing out the checks. They will start mailing in May of 2008- but will no be included with your regular tax refunds, if you receive any. The IRS does report that as soon as it is determined, all of America will know when to expect their checks to arrive. About a week or so before the check is actually mailed, recipients will receive a letter that informs them of the amount of their own irs tax rebate check. If you choose to receive your tax rebate with a direct deposit, you will probably get the deposit around the same time as the letter telling you how much you are going to get, because direct deposit speeds up the process. The good news is the irs tax rebate will not be counted as taxable income on your 2008 tax return. If your situation changes in 2008 you may actually be eligible for a higher rebate, which you will receive in the form of a tax refund in 2008- but if the situation changes and would cause you to receive a lower tax rebate, the IRS indicates that you would not have to repay any of the rebate you received back.
