what the hell is everyone excited about? how is this going to help the economy?? this is a friggin welfare check..
It is free money, if you found $600 on the street, you wouldn't complain.
FWIW, I think it is $600 per person who receives a paycheck, so if your wife doesn't work, you only get $600. Not entirely sure though, that is what I heard briefly on the radio this morning.
Check that, I was wrong, you get $1200 if you file jointly whether or not your wife works.
Frankly, it is a bunch of shit that people who don't even pay taxes get a "rebate" (rebate from what?) and it is phased out at all, let alone at a relatively low number. F*ing crooks.
We need clarification....from my understanding....
1) Need to make over $3,000 (so wife w/o pay will NOT get $600)
2) This is based on the 2007 tax year.
I hope someone can confirm this cause I'm not positive yet.
this is important cause lots of divorced couples alternate dependents.....married couples will also have a hard time seeing...
I heard $75,000....and I heard another number $87,000 is the $87,000 the cap of the phase out?
The info I have found on this is very vague
Well if you dont work AND PAY taxes, then you wont get this money. It will be based on the 2007 tax return
NO...Wrong !
Individual taxpayers would get up to $600 in rebates, working couples $1,200 and those with children an additional $300 per child under the agreement. In a key concession to Democrats, 35 million families who make at least $3,000 but don't pay taxes would get $300 rebates.
You can make ( I think ) Up to $12K a Year and you don't have to File for a Tax Return.
Well how would they get the money if they file something? They would basically be unkown to the government. I just thought that they meant people who file a return but get all of the money back by that statement

Or I guess that at least you would HAVE To work somewhere that takes taxes out of your check is some form or another. It couldnt be a cash job for yearly amount under $3000
