The government will start sending money on May 2.
I purchased a new home in June of 2008.
Fiscal Policy
The 2008 Tax Rebates will be sent out to everyone who files a 2007 Federal Tax Return.
As of June 2014, the United States is not sending out any federal tax rebate checks. The IRS sends our refunds within 6 weeks of filing your taxes.
Absolutely!
Yes. All of America does.

The IRS referred to 2007 tax returns for determining eligibility and the amount of 2008 economic stimulus payments. Eligible individuals were given an extended deadline of October 15, 2008, in which to file their 2007 returns in order to receive 2008 economic stimulus payments. The Recovery Rebate Credit for 2008 tax returns is for people who didn't receive the full economic stimulus payment ($600.00 per taxpayer, $1,200.00 Married Filing Jointly) but who might be eligible now for some or all of the unpaid portion. But if you didn't file a 2007 tax return by October 15, 2008, then you're not eligible for the Recovery Rebate Credit for 2008 tax returns. Recovery Rebate Credits won't be mailed as separate checks, as the 2008 economic stimulus payments were. They'll be added into taxpayers' refunds.
NO. ACTUALLY YES.. THE REBATE IS BASED ON A ONE-TIME TAX CUT. IT IS ONLY AN ADVANCE ON YOUR 2008 RETURNS. No. The CNN article that made this claim was edited, and no longer mentions the "advance, not rebate" position.
Wondering what Government entity handles a tax rebate? A tax rebate is money that is given back. The tax rebate is handled by the IRS government entity.
