So, about these economic stimulus rebate thingies...

It means you will get the same refund at the end of 2008 you would if this rebate did not happen.  It is not an advance on your future rebate.  It is an additional rebate of 2008 taxes.

Taxes are my blind spot; for some reason I just can't follow the logic.  I gladly pay a guy $130 to do them for me.

Oh, and by the way folks, you saw it here first:  MrC admits the current government isn't stupid.  The world may well stop spinning on its axis.  Everyone hang on!

You guys notice that $600 (or $1200 for married plus $300 per kid) is actually the maximum you'll get? There is a minimum of $300 when you have no tax liability.

I think the maximum earnings cap is $75,000 and the low earnings limit is $3,000. It seems to me if you're at the sweet spot of $75,000 after deductions, you'll get your maximum. Otherwise you'll get less either way.  :badmood:

That's the way I'm interpreting the IRS page on this topic anyways.
