Okay, who wants to go shopping? Just kidding, we’ll most likely be paying off my car with our Stimulus Tax Rebate. But since I hate shopping, paying off my car is way more exciting

Go to the IRS website if you want to know where your Stimulus Rebate is: http://www.irs.gov/individuals/article/0,,id=181665,00.html

Oh, and an interesting detail my coworker found out the hard way:

If filing or preparation fees were deducted from your 2007 Refund or you received a rapid refund, you will be receiving a check instead of a direct deposit.

This means that if you filed via say, Turbo Tax, and they took their preparation fee directly from your refund, you will be getting a paper check. The IRS will begin mailing paper checks no later than May 16. Check the payment schedule to find out when you can expect your rebate.

You can also find out the specific status of your rebate by going HERE, but not until about one week before your payment is scheduled.

Happy Friday!
