KillJoy Posted February 12, 2009 Report Share Posted February 12, 2009 I heard on the National CBS News this morning, that Singles are getting a $400 Refund, and Couples a $800 Refund. Is this gonna be like the Stimulus Check from last year, and they just renamed it? I also heard that the $1 Trillion would break down to $32,000 for every Man, Woman and Child in the US. That is a lot is $$$. KillJoy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KillJoy Posted February 12, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 12, 2009 I'll take $400 to put on my credit card. Thanks B! If if does happen, I will apply our's to the CC as well, if it still has a Balance by then. It is not expected until Spring / Summer.

ImUrOBGYN Posted February 12, 2009 Report Share Posted February 12, 2009 You get an extra grand if you pole dance in the nude and send the video to the WhiteHouse in care of Obama. Daddy's gonna take care of you. Hey, I'm the size of "a couple" people. Am I entitled to an extra $800? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wease Posted February 12, 2009 Report Share Posted February 12, 2009 I just read it as "tax credit", not refund. There is a difference in the two... :nod: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still, thats a lot of money for every person. In Taiwan they did a stimulus package, everybody got $100. Everybody, citizen or not, child or adult, it didn't matter, if you were in the country you got $100. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FourString Posted February 12, 2009 Report Share Posted February 12, 2009 Singles are getting a $400 Refund, and Couples a $800 Refund. heh. Anyone else find the humor in this? Why not just say that every person is getting $400? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And then if you count children I think itd be even Truth. I believe there are about 130million taxpayers. If we already filed our taxes for the year, any idea what happens? Do we file a change thing? Or do we apply it next year? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I said before, it's not a refund, it's a tax credit. Here is an article where it's mentioned. It would be for 2009 and 2010, so the taxes you just did would not be effected.

Cordell Posted February 12, 2009 Report Share Posted February 12, 2009 I don't understand, are they saying I'm going to get more money back on my taxes next year? Anyone have a link to a more comprehensive article? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flyin Miata Posted February 12, 2009 Report Share Posted February 12, 2009 "Many people paying for college would get a $2,500 tax credit for tuition and other education-related expenses, such as books and computers." That's a hefty little credit, keeping my fingers crossed. Also, if you are in college and the loans are in your name, but you are still claimed as a dependent by your parent, are you entitled to the $400? I filed as a single person but I am claimed by my parents so I don't know how that all works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

konig_twinkies Posted February 12, 2009 Report Share Posted February 12, 2009 I read that it will be inserted over a period of time in your pay check. You won't be getting a check for $400 this time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TURBOED Posted February 12, 2009 Report Share Posted February 12, 2009 I read that it will be inserted over a period of time in your pay check. You won't be getting a check for $400 this time +1. I believe tax tables are going to be redone (thus withholding tables redone), and we will be getting about $13/week less withheld for the rest of this year... and come next tax season, we will owe $400 less, but it will already be written into the tax tables, it won't be something we have to claim. At least, I think this is the way it will be done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
