Stimulus Payment

[HyperTek]

So i got the stimulus letter in the mail and am excited for it... however someone just now mentioned to me that next year we have to pay it back?

[Phlip]

Pay it back next year?
Okay now I KNOW I am putting it away and not spending it.

[scooz14]

ehh, i dont think we have to pay it back. at least thats not what i got out of my letter.


that would really blow though

[psychoblue23]

When you file taxes on turbo tax it lets you know you qualify, and it said nothing of it having to be paid back. They have done this before, and it was not liek that either.

[shade]

Got one of those today, $300 right? Sick.

[SimpleSexy180]

austin lol.

"got the stimulus letter today?"

[flip3d]

^^ Your avatar is the shit man.


Stimulus payment? Damn, I havent even gotten my W2 yet. Oh nos. Someone notify the IRS :P

[psychoblue23]

If you didnt get it already then your current or past employer is breaking the law

[redZENKI]

It's actually an "advancement" from next year's tax return. You get $600 now, but when you file next year's tax return, that same $600 is taken out from your refund. I was all excited until I found this shit out. Weaksauce.

[stinky_180]

i also got the letter, but i have been too lazy to file my w2.

^your previous or current employer must mail you the w2. otherwise they are breaking the law. you should try calling them. did you change addresses?

[soon2bs13]

redZENKI - seriously? do you have a link?

[SimpleS14]

redZENKI - seriously? do you have a link?

http://beancounterblog.com/2008/02/21/economic-stimulus-package-wheres-my-money/

It's an advancement on your 2008 tax refund as mentioned before.

I'm still waiting to see if I qualify...i doubt i will make any money on my return for next year (single and make above a certain limit).

[redZENKI]

I also heard that this might be taxed. But I found this on the IRS website. I could be wrong about what I said before.

Q. Is my stimulus payment taxable?
A. No. You will not owe tax on your payment when you file your 2008 federal income tax return. But you should keep a copy of the IRS letter you receive later this year listing the amount of your payment. In the event you do not qualify for the full amount this year but you do next year, you will need to have the letter as a record of the amount you previously received.
Q. Will the payment I receive in 2008 reduce my 2008 refund or increase the amount I owe for 2008?
A. No, the stimulus payment will not reduce your refund or increase the amount you owe when you file your 2008 return.

[soon2bs13]

the "free money" comment was funny. not really free if you have to pay it back. i hope the country can get out of this downhill spiral, but it is not looking good at all.

[flip3d]

If you didnt get it already then your current or past employer is breaking the law

I'm sure AutoZone mailed it to my old Address. I'm just too lazy to go pick it up. My mom is still claiming me as a dependent so it probably wont even matter if I file it or not.

[ryguy]

You do not have to pay it back. Ever. Its free money, $600 for everybody.

The misconception that you will have to pay it back in next year was from a misprint that CNN put out, at least from what I read.

So feel free to blow it on hookers and booze to save the economy.

You get $600 if you fall into the like 3k to 75k income bracket, $1200 for couples that make like under 125k or something like that (look up the numbers, I cant remember for sure.) $300 for each dependent.

[redZENKI]

^^Ok, that makes sense. I was wondering where all the rumors were coming from.

[flip3d]

So feel free to blow it on hookers and booze to save the economy.

But hookers arent taxable.

[ryguy]

But hookers arent taxable.

True, however when they buy coke, their drug dealers will use that money to buy Plasma TVs and Bentleys, therefore stimulating the economy.

So basically heres how it works- its an advance on a rebate you would otherwise get on you 2008 tax returns. Meaning that if you did not get it now, theoreritically you would get it as a $600 tax break on top of whatever refund (or taxes due) you would get next year. Meaning that if next tax refund you got $135, you would actually get $735. They are just giving you that 600 bucks now instead of next year. So if you actually owed taxes, yeah, you will have to pay whatever amount you would normally pay, and get the refund this summer rather than it being knocked off what you owe next year. But you will not have to pay the $600 back in addition to what you owe for next year. Also, if you should make significantly more money next year (in effect making you ineligible for the rebate, which would have normally come out AFTER your increase in income) you DO NOT have to give the $600 back. This is where some of the confusion came from.

[SimpleS14]

True, however when they buy coke, their drug dealers will use that money to buy Plasma TVs and Bentleys, therefore stimulating the economy.

LOL...that is a good one.

[BustedS13]

guys, it's free money. it's a harebrained scheme to help out the economy. it's completely retarded and won't do dick.

that said. FREE MONEY WOOOOO!! when mine comes in i'm going STRAIGHT to the horse track! i think i'm going to bet to win on three horses in the same race, hundred bucks a piece.
or maybe i'll go down to florida and go to the dog track with my dad, greyhound racing is even more entertaining

[fliprayzin240sx]

Its free money, all theyre doing next year is less tax breaks...so you dont really loose money. It may affect a few people who sits right on certain tax brackets, that $600 may keep you on a higher bracket or less.

[blasting_speed]

WOOT WOOT FREE MONEY!!!!

Dude imma get that check and spend that shit. I'll worry about it next year. ahahahah

[fliprayzin240sx]

Thats gonna pay for my fucking JCI this year...

[downshift_sideways]

So how do we go about getting this check for free money?

I got something like this in the mail, but I thought it was BS and I most likely threw that shit out. lol. hmm.

[KA-T_240]

So, I am over 18, but claimed as a dependent cause I am a full time college student. Am I going to get the short end of the stick, and not get anything? Maybe my dad will get more back....

[ryguy]

So how do we go about getting this check for free money?

I got something like this in the mail, but I thought it was BS and I most likely threw that shit out. lol. hmm.

You will get a check in the mail sometime this summer. The IRS hasnt sent checks out yet, only little informatinoal messages.

So, I am over 18, but claimed as a dependent cause I am a full time college student. Am I going to get the short end of the stick, and not get anything?

From what I understand, you will still get it, I am in the same boat as you so I hope I'm right. (provided you have a job and claimed an income of at least $3,000 last year. Anybody who makes less than 3k doesnt get anything.)

[SimpleS14]

So, I am over 18, but claimed as a dependent cause I am a full time college student. Am I going to get the short end of the stick, and not get anything? Maybe my dad will get more back....

If you were on that same status last year, then you get jack, but your dad will get extra $300.


When I started school I would work and make scraps for pay. However, because I was a full-time student and filed myself (independent)...i would get all my federal tax back.

[ravinaziankid]

I didn't read the whole thread, but I think your friend heard wrong...i'm pretty sure what he meant to say is that it's not tax free so you have to pay the tax from the 600 or whatever you get back later in 2008 when you file for your taxes.

[0100]

Yup $1500 of free money thanks wife and kid. 315/30 18 NT01's here I come! Because I do the taxes I keep it all, muahahaha.

[0100]

So, I am over 18, but claimed as a dependent cause I am a full time college student. Am I going to get the short end of the stick, and not get anything? Maybe my dad will get more back....

Short end of the stick. lol that $300 is nothing compared to what your old man has to shell out for your ass. Lazy bum drop out of college and get a job washing cars or something.

[ryguy]

No, this money is un-taxable. You do not have to claim it on next years returns.

Short end of the stick. lol that $300 is nothing compared to what your old man has to shell out for your ass. Lazy bum drop out of college and get a job washing cars or something.

If he did have a job this year and made at least 3k, he will get it. (I dont know, maybe you know he didnt have a job or something.) His parents will still be able to get the 300 bucks for him, but if he filed a tax return with 3k or earnings he should get it too.

[RJF]

... however someone just now mentioned to me that next year we have to pay it back?


Definitely, if a certain political party wins the White House. And not only next year, but probably for a long time.

[Dutchmalmiss]

So who DOESN'T get this stimulus $600 payment?

[KA-T_240]

Short end of the stick. lol that $300 is nothing compared to what your old man has to shell out for your ass. Lazy bum drop out of college and get a job washing cars or something.

LOL! You know nothing about anything. I have had a Job since I was 14, and I still work during college. I file as a dependant cause I get most of the $$$ back, but they can get ALOT more back claiming me then we would get back if they didn't, my dad just gives me the difference of what I would get back filling on my own. And he still get like $1000+ back that he wouldn't have gotten.

[HyperTek]

ok lay off the personal stuff... you could be a porn star making money under the table for all we know =p

QUOTE=Dutchmalmiss;1908118]So who DOESN'T get this stimulus $600 payment?[/QUOTE]

people who didnt report or do their 2007 taxes.. or made less then $3k

[ryguy]

Well, I got my little notification paper today from the IRS, so heres how it goes down:

Single people making more than 3k but less than 75k get 600 bucks. Married couples filing jointly get 1200 plus 300 for every child.
Heres the kicker, listen up.

Single people claiming "0" on their W4 (the form you filled out when you got hired) WILL ONLY GET $300. At least thats how I understood it. So it looks like all us college kids are getting 300 bucks.

[SimpleS14]

I filed '1' when I was in college last year....so yea....I'm getting $600 :) (i hope)

[BustedS13]

i get SIX hundred dollars? YES

i can bet a hundred on SIX horses

[SW20Racer]

or a dollar on six hundred horses....you know...to put the odds in your favor...

[BustedS13]

or a dollar on six hundred horses....you know...to put the odds in your favor...

yeah, i could just sit around placing retarded bets all day... oh this will be grand.

[0100]

You know nothing about anything.

Yeah but I know a lot about nothing...

lol I hope you didn't take what I said seriously. My point was don't complain about not getting $300 when you are still a dependent.

[ryguy]

Fuck, it seems like I mislead some people.

I read the IRS letter again today and it says something to the effect that "people who can be claimed as a dependent by another taxpayer will not receive payment."
Fuck.
If I pay taxes just like the next guy I think its bullshit that I dont get anything.

[98s14inaz]

So i got the stimulus letter in the mail and am excited for it... however someone just now mentioned to me that next year we have to pay it back?

Did anyone say anything about the fact that it cost $45mil to send out those letters to everyone? The guy who thought that idea up needs to be fired.

[downshift_sideways]

WELL I RECEIVED $600 from the U.S. Treasury.

However I had the ARS deduct -$500 from my bank account.

WTF IS THIS????

I'm talking on the phone with my bank...anyone know whats going on with that?

Also after they deducted the amount, they charged me an overdraft fee.

[TiNMAN]

who wants sars?

[downshift_sideways]

My bank confirmed everything, and told me paypal deducted -$500 from my bank. I'm on the phone with paypal, yet they don't know what the fuck is going on....Fuck this sucks.

ARS= Auction Rate Securitys

[240trainee]

May 9

I'm independant, have been for years.

hope I get $600

[Yuri]

My stimulus check is almost the same as what I owed.
It'd be easier if they just canceled each other out.

[downshift_sideways]

So I confirmed with bank of america, and paypal. There is suspicious fraudulently activity going on. They are putting a stop payment to ARS.

They got my information off freecreditreport.com.

FUCK!!!

I love bank of america <3

[aNskY]

havent gotten my stimulus, but i have a certified letter from the IRS waiting at the post office. this doesnt look good :(

[flclsteve]

[BustedS13]

[DUFFM4N]

on another forum someone had posted a chart as to when you're supposed to be receiving these checks, so far....its not accurate :-/

[Matej]

So does everyone get at least the 300$, as long as they're 18 or over?
Because I need a new exhaust haha.

[JRas]

Well, me and my wife filed, her pay wasnt tax deductable, but some schooling was.
We only got 600.0 whats up with that?

[aNskY]

so i was wondering
its supposed to be 600.00 for each person that filed taxes correct?

[WERDdabuilder]

so i guess i found something out today. since my tax was Efile and i let them take money out of my return to pay what filing fee, my stimulus money wont be direct deposit like i thought. it will be sent paper check.

[redZENKI]

^^Fuck...that makes two of us.

[worangejuice]

I only got $300.......that will NOT stimulate the economy

[ESmorz]

I'll give you a stimulus package... :naughty:

[Synicals13]

ya the government is unfair. got the equivalent amount of money back from my taxes as my sister did last year, but she got 490$ and i only got a solid 300$!
This money didnt stimulate shit, but help me pay off my debts.

[HyperTek]

why u guys only gettin 300? i thought it was automatically 600 if you made over 3k last year

[WERDdabuilder]

why u guys only gettin 300? i thought it was automatically 600 if you made over 3k last year

it says UP TO 600.

[DALAZ_68]

it says UP TO 600.
yup yup

im in the runnign for 6 bills, i htink...cuz i made well over 3k last year...and i hope since i got direct deposit of my tax return this should be a direct deposit aswelll

[BustedS13]

i just got a letter in the mail informing me that i'll be getting my check in the mail. this is the second letter they've sent in regards to it. wtf

[s14_legend]

i just got a letter in the mail informing me that i'll be getting my check in the mail. this is the second letter they've sent in regards to it. wtf

[ATLspeed]

its funny that you say that becuz it atually cost OVER $1 MILLION:ugh: to just send the letters to everyone. they could have used that money and put it towards the money everyone is recieving.....

[SimpleSexy180]

yeah but thats now how our government works. WE LOVE WASTING EVERYTHING.

[BustedS13]

it's the postal service stimulus payment more than anything. two first class envelopes to EVERY AMERICAN CITIZEN

[SimpleS14]

[kdashy]

[BustedS13]

my second letter said $488. kinda curious how they come up with the numbers

[enkei2k]

http://www.irs.gov/app/espc/

to calculate your stimulus ( it is an estimate ) hope this helps!

[WERDdabuilder]

my second letter said $488. kinda curious how they come up with the numbers

Man im still waiting on mine

[SlideWell]

i got mine last week, what gives

[kandyflip445]

Wait, if you efile you don't get it by direct deposit? WTF?

[stiizy]

i never got a letter but when i filed they said i'll be getting 600 back but why no letter???

[cgtdream]

meh only 300 for me :/

[SimpleS14]

Wait, if you efile you don't get it by direct deposit? WTF?

eh?

I e-filed my taxes and got my rebate via direct deposit.



My little brother did the same thing....he made less than me and got $600. :ugh:

[TOMKAIRA93]

If you e-filed and had them deduct the e-file fee out of your return, then its considered paper filing by the IRS. If you e-filed and paid the e-filing fee with your debit card, then you should be good for direct deposit.

However, I did not get my direct deposit and I don't know why? that sucks!! I did my sister in law's income tax the same way I did mine, yet, they got theirs (direct deposit) and I didn't. WTF Oh well...

eh?

I e-filed my taxes and got my rebate via direct deposit.



My little brother did the same thing....he made less than me and got $600. :ugh:

[HyperTek]

what about direct deposit and efiled but had to send the signature via mail?

i dont remember if i deducted the efile or if i paid for it, but that estimate site once i put my ssn in said tomarrow id get $600

[LB.Motoring]

I wonder if I'm getting one,

I havent got anything in the mail, plus I paid 3k in taxes (stupid leaving stocks under my name last year)

[DohcKA]

haha you dont have to pay it back.... it wouldnt help out much if you had to pay it back next year.... it'll make the economy for next year around the same time suck ass wipes

[DOOK]

mine should be putting itself into my account tomorrow... only time will tell...

[TOMKAIRA93]

I thought direct deposits were only the first two weeks and thereafter would be paper checks. is this correct, or am i wrong? If am wrong, then I'll be checking my account every day. LOL The letter I got from the IRS said I would be receiving mine on May 9th, but I received NAYTHAN!!!

[k0uki]

i got my 600 on may 4

[DUFFM4N]

:keke: :keke:

[just1pepsi]

yeah mine ends in 90, I efiled, had to pay the bitches, and I havent seen my return yet either. nothing like getting ganked by uncle sam. I'm kinda pissed.

Evidently if you had to pay taxes, even if you filed electronically, you have to wait for a check. I'll be getting mine in mid-July.

[axiomatik]

it's not just about e-filing, it's also if you have direct deposit set up (if you got a refund). I got a refund through direct deposit, therefore, my stimulus payment was direct deposited as well, and that was done the first week of may. You can e-file, and get your refund via a paper check. if you did that, you have to wait for a paper check for the stimulus payment as well.

only thing my payment has stimulated is the bottom line of my savings account.

[LeftNutOfGowd]

I was wonder what if you had to pay the government. Like my gf she didnt receive any money back when she filed for taxs instead she had to pay the government, will she be getting a check.

[projekt_s13]

Given the choice of the 300 bucks I received or a Japanese girl, they can keep the money.

[LeftNutOfGowd]

HAHAHA for everyone who's expecting to receive there stimulus check in the near future you might have to wait longer i read this yesterday on yahoo..

http://finance.yahoo.com/taxes/article/105310/IRS-Flooded-With-Calls-About-Stimulus-Checks

IRS Flooded With Calls About Stimulus Checks

So where's the money?In recent weeks, tens of millions of Americans have been flooding the Internal Revenue Service with questions about the government's economic-stimulus payments. Some callers want to know why their payment hasn't arrived and when it will. Others want to know why they didn't get as much as they had expected.
These were among the issues aired at a congressional hearing last week at which IRS officials generally drew praise for handling a massive job relatively smoothly and on short notice. But officials also say the unexpected avalanche of questions has led to unusually long delays for many callers trying to reach the IRS on this and other tax questions. There have also been a few glitches -- including one, scheduled to be remedied next month, affecting hundreds of thousands of parents.



"As with any undertaking this large and complex, it has not been without hiccups," said IRS Commissioner Doug Shulman.
The government began sending payments April 28. So far, about 85.2 million payments totaling $70.78 billion have been distributed. IRS officials estimate 124 million payments totaling $100 billion will be made this year. Those eligible are getting as much as $600 apiece -- or $1,200 for married couples filing jointly -- plus $300 for each eligible child under 17.
But many people are getting less -- or nothing at all -- because their incomes exceeded certain levels. The amount of the stimulus payment begins to phase out for those with adjusted gross incomes over $75,000, or $150,000 for joint filers. People with income above those levels lose 5% of the dollar amount above the threshold -- such as $50 for each $1,000 amount over the limit.
The Bush administration is hoping the payments will pump fresh life into the struggling economy. But some economists say the results have been disappointing so far and that any impact on consumer spending is likely to be short-lived. "It's true that non-auto retail sales are enjoying a spring renaissance courtesy of the federal tax rebates," says a new Credit Suisse report. "But we think the surge is unlikely to last past the summer."



The IRS also is planning special efforts this summer to reach millions of retirees and disabled veterans who qualify for a stimulus payment but who wouldn't otherwise have to file tax returns.
Here's an update on the stimulus payments, where the glitches are and where to get help.
Payment schedule. If your return was processed by the IRS by April 15, you were supposed to get your stimulus payment based on dates determined by the last two digits of your Social Security number and whether you use the direct-deposit payment system.
Here's the schedule for the next three weeks, according to the IRS Web site: If the last two digits of your Social Security number are 64 to 75, your check should be in the mail by June 27. If your last two digits are 76 through 87, your check should be sent by July 4. And if the last two digits are 88 through 99, the check should be in the mail by July 11.
This seemingly precise schedule has led to questions. Some people assumed that if they had filed their returns by the April 15 deadline, they would get their checks based on the Treasury schedule. Not so. The key issue is whether your return was processed by April 15, not whether it was filed by then.
Rep. Pat Tiberi (R., Ohio) says he has heard from more than 50 constituents who filed around April 15 and want to know why their checks haven't arrived. Among those who had expected to get a check sooner was his father. At last week's hearing, Rep. Tiberi said his father was "pretty frustrated" by the experience. But this week, he learned that his payment will be sent early next month.
If you got a six-month extension, haven't yet filed and want your payment in a hurry, here's a suggestion: File your return electronically. Your return will be processed more quickly and your payment will arrive sooner.
Glitches. If you already got your stimulus payment and it didn't include money to reflect your kids, you have company. The IRS says it will mail out about 230,000 additional payments around mid-July after discovering some tax returns were "improperly filed and did not capture the information needed to generate the $300 in qualifying child payments."


In some cases, parents didn't check the right box to get the $300 child payment. In other cases, "a few tax software products primarily used by tax professionals did not capture the proper information needed for issuing the child stimulus payment."
To fix the problem, the IRS is "taking extra steps to identify the affected taxpayers and send them separate checks to cover their qualifying children." You don't need to call the IRS or take any additional steps. These payments will be made by paper check, even if you received your regular tax refund or initial stimulus payment by direct deposit.
Separately, the IRS in early May found a problem with 1,500 stimulus checks that were directly deposited into the wrong accounts, Mr. Shulman said. That was the result of a "programming error" that occurred during the initial computer payment run. "We immediately corrected this problem, and no additional erroneous deposits have been made." All taxpayers affected have since been sent a check.
Getting help. The IRS Web site (www.irs.gov (http://www.irs.gov/)) has extensive information, including a list of answers to frequently asked questions. If the IRS made a mistake in computing the amount of your refund, consider contacting the IRS's Taxpayer Advocate Service. This unit can be especially helpful for people facing financial distress. For details, go to the IRS Web site and click on "Taxpayer Advocate" on the home page, or call 877-777-4778.
