I'd like to know the same thing. If so then I'm buying Dean Warbird ML with mine.

Tax rebate checks will be sent only to persons with Social Security numbers who paid federal income tax in 2007. In general, if you earned income in 2007 and pay taxes on it, you will qualify for a rebate check.


As the bill stands now, individual taxpayers would get a checks for up to $600. Married couples would get up to $1,200, plus $300 per dependent child. All of the rebate amounts would gradually be reduced for individuals with adjusted gross incomes over $75,000 and couples reporting over $150,000 in adjusted gross income.

File your taxes and make less than 75,000. But more than....I really don't remember, but if you've had a job all year you've made enough.

Damn I was unemployed for about 5 months last year. Seeing as I quit my job at DQ, and then work for about a month at Geek Squad, and then started for Kroger in August, after I was done with High School, and had started college.

EDIT:

If you made more than 3,000. Which I did. So no worries here.

I just read. You had to have made more than 3 grand. Which really is just a few months depending on your states minimum wage and you make that.

I'm hoping to do real well with taxes this year. I pay more out of my paychecks to get more back from my taxes. With the combination of that, the rebate check (which I'll get because I made enough this year), & the write off's for my photo jobs, I'm going to put away some much needed cash into my bank account

No offense, but that is just idiocy. You're giving Uncle Sam an interest free loan. If you want more money back at the end of year you're much better off setting up your account or pay check to automatically deduct x number of dollars into a savings account or investment account. At the end of the year you get the same ammount of money you'd get from the government but you get to pocket the interest it's earned during the year.

[Reasoning through Questioning]

I'm getting some good write offs because I'm contract labor. Don't forget about charity. Any crap you drop off at a Hannah Home or anywhere else is a write off.

Well said.

Doing what he said does, however, prevent him from having to potentially pay into taxes. At least he knows he WILL get a check...

I am still waiting on my W2 from my last job, i believe they have till tomorrow but it's pissing me off because I want to get this done with as soon as possible.

I just saw something on Headline News say the checks have dropped to $500 for single people and $1000 for couples.
