Can you claim 2008 income on the 2009 returns?

If it was 2008 incoem received in 2008, then no... you should file an ammended return for 2008. If it was 2008 income received in 2009 then yes.


If you filed taxes last year and filed wrong will you still be able to get the money back this year?

Yes. If you file your original (first) return before the due date, you have 3 years from the due date to amend and claim a refund. If you file your original return after the due date (and within 3 years after the due date), you have 3 years from the date you filed to amend and claim a refund. See Form 1040X instructions to amend your federal return. If you live in a state with personal income tax, you will also need to amend your state return. Most states use the same due dates and refund claim dates. Example 1: Your 2008 return was due on April 15th, 2009. Your original return was received by the IRS on February 21, 2009. You have until April 15th, 2012 to amend your return and claim a refund. Example 2: You did not file your 2008 return before the due date. The IRS received your 2008 return on March 25, 2011. You have until March 25, 2014 to amend your return and claim a refund. Example 3: You did not file your 2008 return before the due date. The IRS received your 2008 return on April 20, 2012. You filed outside of the time limit to claim a refund, so you cannot get a refund. You also cannot amend and get a refund.


What month do you get your stimulus check from 2008 tax return?

There isn't going to be a check based on your 2008 return unless you didn't get the maximum stimulus based on your 2007 return. If you didn't get the maximum based on your 2007, you may be entitled to claim the Recovery Rebate Credit on your 2008 return. The Recovery Rebate Credit will reduce the balance due on your 2008 return or increase the refund due. This year's stimulus is going out to Social Security, Railroad Retirement, and Veteran's Disability recipients only and is not based on your 2008 return.
