its actually $300, but since you're married and I'm assuming filed jointly, you got $600 back :p

Me either, or if I do have one, he isn't sending money :( I got the letter saying that I don't qualify, probably cause i'm still classified as a dependent. oh well, less worried cause i don't need to get insurance and crap like that... 300 would have been nice though, that'd be my exhaust right there... DOH!

oops... Canada don't get that do they?

....blahahahahahhahaa!!!:frog:

j/k:p

:o About getting you bills from Uncle sam it goes by the last 2 digits of your SS# 1-10 will be getting there sooner then the rest they are doing it in numerical order by lots of ten.

Thats what I got from the news chnl.

Hope that gives you an idea of whats going on!

I some how dont get the guts of this thread...i guess its a USA thing:confused: :confused:

Im lost here...help
:confused: :bloated:

Right now, I'm trying real hard not to make the connection that I'm getting a $300 check and the PlayStation 2 is $299. I don't think my wife'd go for that.

(If I do get it that way, I'll christen it the "George W. Bush PlayStation 2." I don't like him much, but if he buys me a PX2, I'll like him just a little bit more ;) )

primeraman- yah, it's a usa thing where we paid taxes last year, but the country is giving us back some doe as a tax break. well, they need to keep this recession to a minimum, so they want us to keep spending on mods. hehehe. :D

psx2??! psx2GTurismo package is only $200 in japan. woohoo, probably gonna get that next time I'm down there. :D :D oop, we're suppose to spend the money in the usa... blahahahahahahhaa george!!!:frog:

I think i might have to move to the states for some extra cash !!!

Lucky buggers !!!

Well, it's our money. We just get it back. Without interest. :mad:

hehe, well some people are paying more tax than others, so guess it ain't fair to some...like my pops makes close to 4x the doe I make and he only gets the same amt back. blahahahahaha!!!:finger:

well.. the government is only giving you this money to make back even more next year!!


the $300 must be declared as income next year (just like any tax return) so guess what? you're getting taxed even more if you think about it!

$300 times millions of tax payers = a lot more money to tax next year!

talk about a revenue boost!!!

Well, I just got my letter in the mail the other day. I filed single so only 300. Not like I'm complaining. Probably hit off one of my credit cards that is milking me of extra cash.:D

The refund is not recorded as ordinary income. It's like more refund for what you already got this year. (for last year)

alraaaaaight, got me a mother's clay bar. woohoo. gonna do some cleaning this weekend. :D
