we just found out we are getting our check BEFORE the wedding and we are so happy....i hope it works out that way for others here too!!! here's the payment schedule:
Does anyone know the you owe the IRS money if they'll keep this check?
Q. I'm eligible for a payment but I still owe federal income tax from a prior year. Will my payment be reduced?
A. Yes. For this purpose, the Stimulus Payment is treated like any other tax refund. This means that part or all of your payment can be used to pay past-due federal or state income taxes or non-tax federal debt such as student loans and child support.
Q. How will I be notified if my stimulus payment was used to offset an outstanding debt?
A. If this occurs, you will receive a letter explaining how the Stimulus Payment was applied. [New 4/11/08]

i just saw that there's actually a calculator on the website to find out how much you are getting. you need your tax info with you though to figure it out. here's the link:

if you owe back taxes---yes your check may be reduced or kept.
Q. I owe some money on my 2007 tax return but the amount I owe is less than my expected Stimulus Payment. Can I wait to pay the balance due and simply let my Stimulus Payment cover it?
A. You should file your 2007 return and pay the entire balance due by April 15. You should not wait for your economic Stimulus Payment to offset the balance due. If you wait, penalties and interest will accrue between April 15 and the date the balance is paid, even if it is ultimately covered by the Stimulus Payment, which will not be available before May

Yup--if you Direct Deposited your federal refund for 2007 -- your economic stimulus payment will go into the same account
if you closed the account since then--it will bounce back to the govt and they will mail it

Re: SWR--Economic Stimulus Checks!
My HR Block guy said I only get $300. I think I don't earn enough or something.... FH gets $300 too. We're not sure why though.

Re: SWR--Economic Stimulus Checks!
I should be getting 600 by may 9, but fh owes so he will get 0. It pi.ss me off that I may not get anything for the kids. I didn''t claim them on my tax return this year, for the first time in 12 years, I couldn't-long, aggravating story. Does that mean i get cr ap for them? I pay child support too. I got royally screwed. ex makes much more than me, gets to claim the kids and gets my child support I hope I at least get something. I can't even claim the damm child support I pay.
