IRS Rebate Checks: When can you expect yours?

So it is the US economy that is the underdog now and everybody's favorite President has decided to give it a much needed boost in the form of cold hard cash!

If you are wondering really how much you will get (surprise - not everybody will get this money!) and by when, read on.


To know by when you can expect your check-in-the-mail, cross-check the last 2 digits of your social security number with the table below. E.g. if your SSN's last 2 digits are 33, you can expect to receive the check by the week of 13th August:

For married taxpayers who file a joint return, the first SSN on the return determines the mailing date.

However, if you make over the following limits the check will not come:

Married with 2 kids and AGI over $186,000
Married with 0 kids and AGI over $ 99,000
Single with 2 kids and AGI over $99,000
Single with 0 kids and AGI over $87,000


So do your bit for the US economy and make sure you spend all that money - keep the wheels moving friends!
