2009 Stimulus Check, Receive $300 - $1200 in 2009
67The Stimulus Check, Receive $300-$1200
If you did not qualify for the stimulus check payment in 2008, it may not be too late. If you are now eligible and meet certain guidelines then you may receive a stimulus check payment for 2009.
To qualify you must meet certain criteria:
-
$3,000.00 in income which can include social security and veterans affairs benefits.
-
A valid social security number.
-
You are not a dependent of someone else’s.
The amounts will vary depending on your family size and how you file. If you file single then you may get between $300.00 - $600.00. If you are filing jointly then you can get between $600.00 - $1,200.00. There is an additional payment of $300.00 for each qualifying child.
These amounts will decrease as income levels increase. If your income for 2008 exceeded $75,000 then your check will be decreased by 5% of your income that exceeded the income limits.
To claim this payment on your 2008 return you will need to use form 1040A. You must fill out this form even if you normally do not file a return. This form is very simple and only asks for the minimum amount of information for you to file for a stimulus payment.
An online tax calculator can help you determine if you are eligible and how much you will receive. There are many online tax preparation services such as TurboTax online that offer these free tax calculators. When you receive your payment you will also receive a letter that outlines the amount of your stimulus check and the reasons if any that the amount was decreased.

Take 15 dollars times 52 its more than you had and better than nothing.
I really think it is sad for everyone to bitch about something that is being given to them. I really need that money and i don't care if it is just three dollars i would be gratful. Give Obama time, it's hard to clean up a eight year mess. We all have families to feed, buy clothes for and house. And i think that the more they can give us, (poor people like me, aka working people) the better it will make the economy. Because we will be putting it all back in by getting the things our family's need. Thank You Obama (Time for change)
You know you guys really need to stop complaining and learn how to spell. It makes no sense to be grown and can't spell. Give the man time he just got into office and it's gonna take him a while to clean up what BUSH f'ed up. Thank you!
We are to receive an extra $15 a week in our paychecks starting April. How is this suppose to help anyone?
when do pennsylvanians get their stimulus checks and do we have to file a tax return? im on ssi
why arent the poor families getting any money like bush gave us
when do the 2nd stimulas checks come out
I got 300 last year and then on my turbo tax forms it said i was going to get the other 300 becuase my tax situation changed but when will i get this if at all.???
I am 35 years old. I started working summer jobs when I was 15-16. In May 2000 I had a serious accident that crippled me. I do hope that someday I might be able to work again, but it doesn't look good. The stimulas check I got was a big help, but now SSI has stopped my dissability checks for unknown reasons. What is $300.00 going to do for me now. What does our government think we are supposed to live? love
I just read most of these comments and I want to know one thing: Where the hell was all this bitching when Daddy Bush was giving out a stimulus package? Oh, he's a god, a good man. When President Obama does the same, it's "that's not enough, whine,whine,bitch,bitch. After reading your comments, if I were President Obama, I wouldn't give you guys a DAMN thing!!!!!
Matter of fact, I just might find a way to get the names and URLs of the whiners and turn them into President Obama so he can trace the "grateful" people who say his stimulus package "isn't enough". Maybe he'll give it to people who truly need and appreciate it and let the rest of you guys go to hell.
yup 5,000 would definatly do me good. 400 bucks is not enouff. you know what! for all tha bul crap we've put up with the goverment troughout our lives. bad roads, hard to read road signs, bad parks etc. they owe us big time! time for them to pay up. what happens to the SS money from people that die before they use it all up anyways? they dont talk about that do they. huh. i could go on and on.
if every one hasnt noticed obama isnt going to do anything he said he was going to do! he used that to get into the office and now its the hell with the us its just him now but yall keep waiting on that check the united states is in trouble as long as obama is in the office
$300? That wont even pay for dinner when its my turn to take my friends out to dinner! I cant believe this.....we should all get at least $5000 each....that way i can get some new rims and get all the honeys think im fly..haha
I need more than $300...my car needs new seat covers, my house needs a new coffee maker, and I just have to take a 7 day vacation to Hawaii...because if i dont...then the 7 credit cards i have maxed out...just wont mean anything!
Some people are going to use this money for crack and coco's, i hope people like me i will use the money for good cause; like pay bills, taking care of their families and so on,
stop bitching about the money and be happy with what you get.
How much crack is we can buy wif stimelant check?
My man obamma!! We in da whit houes now!
I got a check last year of 522. this year I ended up owing. Does any one know if when you owe money do you still get the stimulas check? I could sure use it to pay what I owe.
I didnt qualify for last years tax refund nor will I qualify this year. I am a college student still claimed as a dependant on my parents taxes, they dont even get the child tax credit for me since I am over 18. So essentially, as a college student with a large amount in student loans, I apparently am not in need enough to deserve a stimulus check, or that my parents even get any compensation for me.
I think we all need more than 300 hundred. I just had someone cut all my tires on my car and they are over 400 hundred. How am I to pay for this with ony disability as a income
Instead of bailing out all of Wall Street, while they still continue to live high on the hog and obtain bonuses which we may never see in 20 years, why can't that money be split into each household and let the Americans save their homes, raise their children, put food on the table, clothes on their back, send them to college. The list goes on and on. Instead we just keep feeding the richer. Of course, we should put money back into the economy also but isn't it the American peope who are suffering the most? Losing their jobs and homes at an all time high rate? I am embarrassed to be an American at this time and believe we, Americans, are the one who deserve this huge bail out as we, middle and low class Americans, are the ones who are suffering the most.
what happen to the $1,000.00 Obama said we would get? the 300.00 or 600.00 is not enough for us, since the banks and other businesses received billions of dollars. the tax payers should get more too. like at least $5,000.00 each then we could see some of our bills being paid and be able to save a few dollars also.
It sounds like the plan is the same for 2009 as it was for 2008.
The thing to remember is that those on Unemployment probably will only get $300 instead of the $600 or $500
If it passes you should get another one. 500$ i believe and if you had a child should be 1000$
i made under 3000 last year but when i filed this year they added my 300.00 dollar stimulus on so will i still get one this year?
i think we should pass the stimulas again and triple it so that we can actually go out and spend the money.Im on disability and I only go 300.00 last year so that didnt do much for me as well as many others.I think it should pass as soon as possible like the president promised all of us.That would be change it needs to happen now
I received stimulus package of 600$ last year. Are there any news for any stimulus package for the once which had received last year?
last year i did not make enough money because i was in jail but i have been working from march 2008 through now will i get a stimulus check?
They should be giving us more, we put more money into the government ans politcians then the government itself, i won't forget how the IRS robbed my last time take took 648.00 from me..and left me with 300.00...JUST WHAT AM I'M GOING TO DO WITH 300.000?????...my college loans are sky rocketing and i'm one step away from an associates degree!..and now i'm just waiting for the lies the IRS are going to come up with reguarding my stimulus package.
Succinct and informative. Nice hub!
okay if i owe for student loans will i still get a stimulus check
it says thatwe recieved 749 for each spouse so that totalled 1498.00 so why did i not get money for my 2 kids or was that included????
I didn't qualify last year because my income was to low and I am a single mother of two. I was a server that made $2.15 an hour and made under $3000 for 2007. This year I made more and I actually recieve the rebate from last year on this years tax rebate. I am very thankful.
If you had a child last year, there's a line on your IRS tax form you need to watch out for. It could mean $300 in savings on your tax bill. Ditto if Uncle Sam neglected to send you an economic stimulus check last year. Or, God forbid, figured it wrong.
when do the checks come out?
hello my name is chantel rogers and i wanted to know if i could do my form online
Thanks for the info. I heard that we might get any where from 25,000 dollars up to 50,000 dollars.
