About this economic stimulus payment thing??

Question

so i've recieved my $300. and was told by like 15 people that i should be recieving an additional $600??? what are they talking about? i filed the 1040 and its just me

Answer 1

I spent my STIMULUS. you should receive $600 alone, the 300 i thought was per child you had. i could be way wrong..all i know is i stimulated the economy with my personal stimulus. dumbest idea every........

Answer 2

Unfortunately if you received $300 that's all that you will receive.

Answer 3

It depends on you credit liability. It was suppose to be 600 for you and 300 per child..or 1200 if filing married and 300 per child. But all people are getting different because of their credit liability. You should have gotten a paper in the mail explaining why you  got 300...hope this helps

Answer 4

You only get three hundred unless you are either head of household (additional 300) or have a qualifying Dependant (additional 300-600-I think max of two Dependants) I know the maximum stimulus check could be 1200.

Answer 5

Go look at your tax return.  What was on line 57?  If it was less than $300, you got $300.

You only got $600 if you actually PAID $600 or more in taxes.

Answer 6

If you made the Amount to qualify you should get 600.00 it was 300.00 per child. 1200 if married filing jointly

Answer 7

depends on how much you make, actually.

The IRS has a "click on" button right on the front page of their website---

www.irs.gov

Answer 8

go to irs.gov the is a stimulus calculator on there.  You will need to have you 1040 form because you need to enter amounts from the tax form.  I only recieved $600.00 for both me and my son.  But my parents received 600 a piece. And my brother who is single with no children received $600 for him self. It go by how much you have made and your tax responsibilities

Answer 9

Not an additional $600 if you got $300 that's what you are gonna get.... here's a direct link to the stimulous check website from the irs......

hope this helps you. Spend wisely!!!

Answer 10

It's 300 if you have no dependents, and I believe an extra 300 for every dependent.

Answer 11

If your tax liability was $300 or less, then you get $300.  If it was more, you get the total amount of your tax, up to a maximum of $600.

Your tax liability is one of the following depending on which form you filed:

· On Form 1040, the amount shown on Line 57;

· On Form 1040A, the amount shown on Line 35; or

· On Form 1040EZ, the amount on Line 10.

Answer 12

I haven't received my stimulus payment yet. Does any one know why?

I'm a Canadian who has never been a resident of the US.

Answer 13

sounds like you got what you should have

Answer 14

you only get 600 if you're married and then 300 for any kids you have.
