I'm sure she made up for it by doing a gig for one of the politicians responsible for this mess.

According to WKTV's news this morning, President Bush is expected to sign this Bill next week and checks between $500 to $1200 should be received by us some time in May or June!
Maybe, now I can get my garage painted and a new kitchen ceramic floor installed!

yes, and it is just as I thought it would be, an advance on 2008's tax refunds. That means its claimed against any refunds you'd get this time next year when filing 2008's taxes: articles.moneycentral.msn.com/Taxes/Advice/TheDetailsOnTaxRebates.aspxThis isn't free money -- for most people To produce this cash, Congress created a one-time tax credit to reduce taxable income for most taxpayers this year. Normally, you wouldn’t see that cash until the spring of 2009, when you filed your 2008 return. But Congress wants to speed that money to you now, so checks will start going out in May. Remember, this is your money you're getting back, and the rebate checks are basically an advance on your 2009 refund. When similar rebates were sent out in 2001, said tax expert Mark Luscombe, "a lot of people were upset to see their (next) refund reduced." |
