Answer 2

Ok, to put it simply:

first - its your own money. You paid that in taxes and they gave you some back.

Second, it was sent to "stimulate the economy" with the energy crisis and high price of gas, and the housing industry shot, nobody is spending as much money and keeping the value of our dollar up.

Answer 3

Sign it and send it me so I can verify that in fact you did receive one then I can answer your question.

You received your Stimulus Payment because you qualified to receive it. You filed a 2007 income tax return.

Now go out and buy something with it to help stimulate the economy.
