MOE-LESTER Posted March 27, 2008 Share Posted March 27, 2008 i heard that the IRS is trying to catch alot of people slipping by handing in their forms. if you hustle and have not made clean paper in the last year, i suggest not trying to stick your head out for a measly 600 bucks. you might get noticed by the wrong people.

boner9000 Posted March 27, 2008 Share Posted March 27, 2008 here's a few things from irs.gov: Q: I know some people won’t get a stimulus payment. How do I know if I’m one of them? A: You won’t get a stimulus payment in 2008, if any of the following apply to you: You don’t file a 2007 tax return. Your net income tax liability is zero and your qualifying income is less than $3,000. To determine your qualifying income, add together your wages, net self-employment income, nontaxable combat pay, Social Security benefits, certain Railroad Retirement benefits and certain veterans’ payments. You can be claimed as a dependent on someone else’s return. For example, this would include a child or student who can be claimed on a parent’s return. You do not have a valid Social Security Number. You are a nonresident alien. You file Form 1040NR or Form 1040NR-EZ, Form 1040PR or Form 1040SS for 2007. Also: Economic Stimulus Calculator And most importantly: Q. Is my stimulus payment taxable? A. No. You will not owe tax on your payment when you file your 2008 federal income tax return. But you should keep a copy of the IRS letter you receive later this year listing the amount of your payment. In the event you do not qualify for the full amount this year but you do next year, you will need to have the letter as a record of the amount you previously received. Q. Will the payment I receive in 2008 reduce my 2008 refund or increase the amount I owe for 2008? A. No, the stimulus payment will not reduce your refund or increase the amount you owe when you file your 2008 return. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seeking Posted March 27, 2008 Author Share Posted March 27, 2008 you dont have to file if you made less than $2,400 total, and you dont qualify if you made less than $3000. i have $0 reportable income this year. id rather not file anything and continue my life of tax free balling. getting audited is not worth the couple hundred dollars id get back.

ILOTSMYBRAIN Posted March 30, 2008 Share Posted March 30, 2008 Pretty sure they let you know if you are eligible. I'm getting at least the 300$ from them. Maybe 600$ but not sure. Which means I'll see about 2G's. I'm pretty happy about this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
