I guess I wasn't all that clear. Looks like I'll need to wait until mid-June for my check.

littlek just for the record, I saw what you posted and deleted. I didn't and don't think that way about you at all. The thought never even entered my mind.

littlek, this may be a bad time to ask, but could you loan me three hundred dollars?

You see, snood is ravaging her right now, and I feel if I were to offer money I could participate and.... forget it. Keep your cash.

Call them Monday. That doesn't sound at all right.

Why does that not sound right, roger? It is a simple formula.

Simple? Ha! It's the IRS.

(Sorry that I can't lend you the money, Gus.....)

Roger, call them, call who? I tried to call about the timing of the incentive check and never got to a human.

They really do have humans. Try calling very early in the morning. If they don't cut you off while on hold, keep holding.

Okay, Gus, explain why she didn't get the full $600.00, if the formula is so simple.

There's this thing
Quote:
net income tax liability
which they speak of. They say it's the combined amount of two lines from the 1040 sheet. I used the 1040EZ and there are no lines with the numbers they mention (lines 57 and 52). I can't find the above quoted phrase in my tax papers.

It boils down to income, roger. If she made less than a given amount the check is issued accordingly.

Eyep. (It's line 10 on the 1040EZ). I earned too little taxable income to get the full 600 back.

Well, that just sucks. Was the purpose to stimulate spending, or to reward those with exactly the right income?

It's stupid isn't it? I guess the idea is that you have to be paying taxes in order to have them rebated. While I did pay taxes last year, I didn't pay enough to warrant a full rebate check.

Tax check
I should of received my check on May 16th. I didn/t make enough money to pay federal tax in 2007 but I did send in a form. Do you think with no money being made that I am just not qualified for even the 300 dollars allowed. Thanks for the input in advance. Sandi

It'd be much easier for you to review the requirements and make that determination yourself...

Not making enough to pay income taxes isn't enough info for anyone else to know.
