1. I was playing around

I put married with 56 kids. 84,400. In reality, I’m getting 1400. But that sure sounds good.

2. I'll get $19.

3. I figured I wouldn't get one.

Really don’t need it, anyway.

In honesty, I benefited greatly from the tax cuts a few years back. Not many did.

4. Boy, That Phases Out Quick!

Single person making $77,000 gets $840?
So, they lose $560 in stimulus for 2 grand a year more.
At $74,999 the stimulus is 1.87%. At $77k, it's down to 1.09%. At $78,500, it falls to 0.535%.
That seems drastic to me.
It greatly dilutes the stimulative impact.

5. Nothing!!!!

Despite the fact that I racked up debt during my furlough, i get bupkiss. Apparently I am rich.

6. you can use 2019, 2020, or 2021's income

you will have to file taxes and wait for a refund for either of the latter two.

7. Tried all three.

Normally I wouldn’t complain. I’ll be okay really, but money I would now normally be putting into local businesses is going to pay off debt I accrued to make ends meet. It’s a (substantial) net loss for the economy.

8. Thanks for that!

I haven’t had a raise in almost 10 years - but got a bonus last year right before covid that takes me over the limit - looks like I will still get the stimulus.

9. Anyone know what do we have to do to get it?

The first one I had to go onto a website and fill stuff out ... but the 2nd one just appeared in my account one day.

I make (just) low enough to get the whole check, so will it just appear in my account again like last time, or?

10. Question: my son graduated from college

And didn’t start until July. So, this is the first year he will file return. He makes $60,000 a year. I read somewhere he’ll be able to deduct it on his tax return and then get it as a refund. Does anyone know if that true?
