Answer 1

At the IRS website you can put some personal info in about yourself and it will tell you the exact details of your stimulus payment.

Answer 2

if you are married - YOU CAN'T file as Head of Household - that's not allowed - Married joint or separate are your only choices - I think you'll be getting a nasty letter from the IRS soon - asking for their refund back - no joke and if you didn't actually receive the refund yet - chances are, you won;t, because you filed illegally

Answer 3

visit IRS website at www.irs.gov "wheres my stimulus" use the Stimulus Calculator to find out if you qualify and if you do qualify it will give you the amount you qualify for and when to expect your rebate.

You need to have the copy of your tax return to use the calculator.

Answer 4

"i filled as head of household,...."

So, you and your wife are separated, huh?

If you aren't, you better check out the requirements for the Head of Household filing status.

Answer 5

It doesn't matter that you filed separately, or that you filed as head of household, although unless you separated before 6/30 and didn't live together at all after that, and at least one of your children lived with you, then you weren't allowed to file as head of household and you filed an illegal return.

For an individual, the rebate starts to phase out at $75K AGI, so yes the amount you made would have affected your rebate.
