It's on the IRS site. They are doing it by social, but the time frame is different depending on whether you filed w/direct deposit or via check.

Mine is..LOL.  I got $900.  Nearly all of it went for my house payment.  A few dollars went for 2 dtv converters. Thankfully, I had my gov't issued coupons for those! :wink:

You know they are just going to take it away again.  I'm wondering if my tax refund next year will be -900.00 and I'll end up owing the IRS.

or, another way to look at it is, they are gonna spend it if they get it from you or borrow it from china.

hope you invest that 600 bucks well, cuz eventually that tab is gonna come due.

ya, know seriously, I would agree with you, and maybe it should have been........but, from what I have understood.......this is common, even Clinton did no bid's to haliburton..........

haliburton is like the best equipped company that does this type of work..........i'm not saying that it is right...but, like many, many things in washington......it don't always gotta make sence..........

that's just one example.  this administration is fleecing the public on an epic scale, and that's the main reason i want them out.

well, in this great system of ours.......the admin will be gone in 7 more months......I'm not excited about the new choices........but, the swinging of the pendulam, usually works for the good.............i think apathy is my biggest fear of those who decide our next leadership......

I'm simply excited that the current administration will be out.  :yes:

I can't believe the damage they've done to this country in the past 7 1/2 years.

Really?  Do you what happens when .gov increases the money supply?  Especially when .gov is spending more than it is taking in (deficit spending).
