Is there such a thing?
Some sources stated March, others April, while further sources cite May.
Any takers for June?
Seriously though, are "we" getting them, or not?
-
my "stimulus" check was not having federal taxes taken out of my check.
Luckily I had extra taken out so I dont have to pay in next year
Honestly, whoever thought that was a good idea should be hung by the neck

no checks this year. you're just getting a few extra bucks in your paycheck each week.

My dad and i both just got stimulas checks through SS. $ 250 each this week.
My parents both just got this. According to the letter that came ahead of the checks it's for SS RECIPIENTS not just anybody.
When my mom told me my wife thought we would get 1 or 2 as well until I told we would have to be drawing out SS or SS-disability.
As for the stimulus checks the only thing I have heard is that we are getting a few extra bucks in each paycheck = to $400 for singles and $800 for couples. they then divide that by how many checks you get a year and voila. personally I would rather they didnt because what they DONT tell you up front is that next year at tax time.......
..............
............wait for it
...........
We get to PAY THAT CASH BACK!! woohoo!!!
just like when my accountant did my taxes and informed me that I gotta figure in that $600 we got last year as income and pay taxes on it :furious
I would have rather not gotten it. It is all smoke and mirrors to make ppl feel better but in truth it really doesn't amount to much. I can make make more than that working about 13hrs of OT in a week
-
Making $7.40 an hour, being disabled, and a full-time college student, getting any extra income is gladly welcomed.
Jerk.
Is that better?

you might want to check around because I paid no taxes on that money and did not have to pay any of it back neither.
The way it was explained to me was that money was considered a refund on your 2008 taxes that was just paid out to you before the end of the tax season. This was not income but wrote in to be refund of what you were going to be paying in anyway.
As a matter of fact there were some people received too much money due to the child credit that went with it. The refund was given based on 2007 taxes and some people had dependants in 2007 but none in 2008. Those people all got the child credit when they received their refund and paid none of it back but the parent that did claim those children that year were able to get the refund for their child on their 2008 tax return. This is the reason H&R block had all those advertisements that said that you may still receive money from the stimulus that was paid out in 2008.

My grandfather got 250 bucks in the mail from SS over a month ago.
-
Thing is, you may get it now but we will ALL be paying for it for years to come.
-
I didn't pay my 2008 Stimulus back either and I was thinking the same thing because the first stimulus, (when was that?), I did pay back because there was a place on my 1040EZ to deduct it from any refund I received that year.
Not this year though.
wrongway
-
For 20 dollers today you pay me back 80 the next day! :rock
You will be getting it, and they will be taking it back at the end of this year + interest.
its the american way. Takes $ to make $$. :rofl

I'm getting mine this month, just got a letter saying that I'm getting $250 from Obama's stimulus plan, but it's through my SSI disability I get.
-
no checks this year. you're just getting a few extra bucks in your paycheck each week.
of which you'll pay back more than double next year.

Let me get this straight.
You make $7.40 an hour, are disabled, and a full-time student.
Do you actually pay any net taxes?
If not, why should you get any "extra income" (as you like to call it)?
-
I can remember making wages like that and I still paid. There is no income too small for taxes. :t

If your disabled and on SS-disability you will get the $250.
There is no reason to go calling ppl names tho.

I'm disabled myself and your allowed to make money with a part-time job up to a certain amount, the more you make on your part time job though, the less you get in disability, it's been awhile since I knew what the amounts exactly where but I think it's something like up to $3000 you still get your full disability, anything above that you get less & less in disability.
Now I don't have any part time job so I get my full disability, which actually isn't all that much since I became disabled at 19, so I had only about 3 years of working to put into Social Security, but I'm getting $250 from the stimulus package which I'm grateful for because when the Bush stimulus happened I didn't get any of that.

i thought it was 20k?
i remember having taxes withheld, but i got them all back at the end of the year when i had my first jobs that were below 20k/year

It's also based on family size, like a family of 4 can make up to say 29,000 and still get all of their federal back. Not sure what the # is, but several years ago we were over the magic # by less than $100 and only got a small % of the money back.

YA....that same thing is going to cost a lot of people more too.......the little extra they get in their paychecks will push them up to the next tier......and they'll end up with more being taken out of their checks. or ownig more at the end of the year.

My MIL got her check last week. She was all happy about it. Then I explained to her that her daughter and I would be the ones paying that debt back. She stopped bringing it up. :D
