Whos ready for the stimulus check payback?

[axistang]

Entered my info in to file taxes. It asks how much your stimulus payment was last year. When I enter $900 (filing joint) , it comes up saying I get $833 less back this year -vs- if I enter $0. I guess we are paying this "free money" back. Anyone else file already and try this :thinking: ?

Can't wait to type in $1,200 joint and see the damage on my tax return.

They are saying the refund goes down because if you didnt get the stimulus $ last year, you get it this year. We didn't make close to what we did in 2007, so someone will have to compare their numbers I guess. A lot of people who are filing look at it the same way I did it seems.

probably 1199.99 less, you were given 1 cent, and it only cost 5 billiion to mail those checks out.

so if i got 1200 last year for a rebate, then i have to pay it back this year? LOL.

Someone has to pay the government so they can keep bailing out the big 3.

Need to look into this more, is the software or website you going to set up correctly to handle this? and did it affect your refund or the amount you owe???

We got a letter that stated we did not have to pay on this money, we kept it, just have to find it....

[TurboLSX]

hey they still get a pay raise with a 9% approval rating, if we had a 9% approval we would be on the street looking for a job where they need to be. please someone point the terrorists to washington.

Thats just due to the fact that ford setup a $20 billion+ credit line back in '06.
