People who do not have a tax filing requirement but who had at least $3,000 in income during 2007 from any combination of earned income, nontaxable combat pay, and certain benefits from Social Security, Railroad Retirement and Veterans Affairs must file a 2007 income tax return in order to receive a stimulus payment.

They could be eligible for a stimulus payment of $300 for single filers and $600 for married couples filing jointly plus the additional $300 for each qualifying child under age 17.

if i already got my tax rebate, will i be recieving a stimulus rebate?

The stimulus is a nice "thought". A real stimulus would have paid everyones Standard Living expenses for a month. I feel terrible for those whos SS# is high, they won't see their check until the end of July. How is that a stimulus to those people. I know the only thing its going to help me do and that is pay for my gas to go to work and food for my children. I am tired of people saying that gas is high because demand is high, NO demand is still the same because we all have to WORK! This stimulus was given at a time that is just going to fund those pockets more than they already have. Its unjust and gruel what they are putting American Families through. No I cannot walk to work or ride a bike, unfortuantely I live too far away. NO I cannot get a new job because there is not any jobs here. Things would not be bad if WAGES rose to match the cost of living. Wake up Congress. You need to do something now, before its our own backyard we will start to fear. People are going to get desperate.

I feel the stimulus checks are done all wrong. I'm a single mother of one who gets no child support. I only get 300 for me and 300 for my son, but a married couple who's income would be more recieve more money. Plus they want to take it out if people owe taxes or student loans. Wasnt this supposed to help us? Not be a way to take away from us. Yeah some might think why complain it's free money, but some of us feel we earned it, and yet felt like we are being done wrong.

In 2007 we received only benefits from Social Security and file a 2007 income tax return in order to received a stimulus payment. When we will receive our check? My SS end 05

Thanks for any help Barb

The White House and the Democrats were responsible for those stimulus checks. If the previous writer calls them "a gimmick" perhaps he/she should donate their check to charity.

The economic stimulus checks are just a joke as far as stimulating the economy and my tax preparer agrees with me. i will be getting only $300 and my monthly automobile gas bill is usually about $230 per month. It is just a public relations gimmick by the White House. i cannot buy any consumer goods on the check I will be getting.
