I was wondering if I'll receive an IRS stimulus tax return..?

Question

I am a 21 year old college student who made $7,000 in 2007. My parents claim me as dependent on them when they file the taxes. Am I still eligible to receive an IRS stimulus tax return?

Answer 1

Since they claimed you, you WILL NOT receive any money. And since you are over 18, even though they claimed you, they will not receive money either.

Answer 2

No, dependents aren't eligible.

Answer 3

If someone else can claim you...no.

"You're eligible if you have a valid Social Security Number (SSN), can't be claimed as a dependent on a tax return and have either an income tax liability or "qualifying income" of at least $3,000."
