For instance. my boyfriend only paid $625 in taxes last year, and made $6600. He claimed our other child, so he ended up getting back almost $3000 even though he only paid $625!! So it means he didnt pay ANY taxes, he got back more than he paid in. Because the tax liability is LESS than $300... his stimulus is only $300 NOT the $600 everyone thinks they are getting per person! That is why people are getting less than they thought! Low income people who have kids, usually get back MORE than they paid in taxes! And P.S. He hasnt even received any notice of getting a payment at all. His will be the last batch to go out because of his ss#... so Im worried he may not get one at all. He never got the first notice like I did, but according to the rules it looks like he qualifies. |

THEY ALWAYS HAVE A REASON TO KEEP IT. I should, from his speach recieve the full amount promised, but as I said, I think they are going to wait until the banks fail, and bail out. |

I've learned never to do my own tax return. Always have it done for you by a tax accountant. The years I did it myself, I ALWAYS got letters in the make saying that I owed more money. They always squeezed me for more. As soon as I had an accountant sign it, they never tried to get more from me. |

I still end up with no refund, and for the most part feel lucky they don't take more from my check! Again, this does not have a reasonable explanation. This is in fact a fraud foisted by the administration. It is not what they said, or how they said. It is what they DO. Steal, cover up, and lie. I am furious more people should know the checks, and they're "under review" is simple theft! |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 435115 United States 06/21/2008 03:15 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I haven't received a letter like that but I did receive my letter saying how much we would be getting. According the IRS calculator on their website, our check was going to be $1800 but the letter that we received said it would only be $900. Quoting: mopar28mTalk about B.S. We expected more too. Got the check for $900, and then a letter saying it was under review. We were shorted one of the kids so we are hoping they will send the rest. Someday when pigs fly. HA! |

You got the check THEN the letter? How absurd! What do you think they did with the info on the kid--it goes by ss#? |

User ID: 455009 United States 06/21/2008 03:26 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I actually worked on the stimulus program. Lot of the returns were totally screwed up and maybe that is why they are under review? Some people filed twice; once for regular and once for stimulus. That will gum up the works too. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 455862Thats just great. I knew from the beginning I would be one of the last to see a check if it even happened. So these morons have clogged the whole thing up because they are stupid and greedy and just to get a few dollars. The people are almost as bad as the politicians. I think at this point I'll just figure nothing is coming. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 283256 United States 06/21/2008 03:29 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | HA!HA!HA! YOU EXPECT 'HONESTY' FROM THE GUBMINT? WHERE THE HELL YOU BEEN THE LAST 18 YEARS? There could be fireballs dropping out of the sky and the 'official' weather report would read 'unseasonably hot weather'. Besides it takes many billions to pay off those fraud laden military contractors and if you are low income then you are a useless eater and not really 'stimulating' the economy as much as those criminal contractors are by spreading around the payola. |
