Stimulus checks

Of course I am no expert but for those who have already filed, how hard could it be to write an algorithm looking for singles under $75,000, married under $150,000 ( which they already have to do anyway, right? ), who filed a w-2 suggesting they had a job? I would think it could be done in a matter of days. Still wouldn't be all I wanted since not everybody who filed with a W-2 lost their job but at least people like me who did not file a W-2 indicating that I was not working and therefore could not have lost a job, would be excluded.

I had my income tax check in the bank, direct deposit filed electronically within 3 weeks of filing. Originally Posted by HedonistForever

Very little is checked in detail when you first file. At some point in time after that, suspicious information on the filing will be looked at in detail. Some people with really questionable information will be audited, approximately .5%. I was once told that if you aren't audited by August, you are safe. I have been audited once in my lifetime and it was many months after filing.

Since almost all of us file electronically, I wonder how easy it is to bring together all the relevant taxpayer information. I used to send all of it in to the IRS by mail.

so if I got a 500 refund in direct deposit in 2019 tax return, i'd be getting 700 in there? Originally Posted by dilbert firestorm

No, you would get the $1200/$2400, plus the extra for children provided you were under the Adjusted gross income amounts and then a sliding scale for every $5 above that.

I have read they are treating it as an advance of a tax credit they will provide on the 2020 tax return, but are estimating it based on either your 2019 return if filed, or your 2018 if you haven't filed your 2019 return.

Back child support or potentially other IRS back obligations are so far the only things I've heard that could reduce or hold it if you filed either 2018 or 2019.

student loans, too, I expect.

I hope there are offsets.. these tax avoiders need to pay the price, instead of rolling over what they owe, year after year.

And while it didn't include student debt forgiveness like AOC/Pelosi/Schumer/etc. wanted, it did defer payments until something like September.

makes sense, I can't imagine Democrats going along, if student loans were included.. if they get the back tax owers, plus child support, that's a good start.

They did though as far as I can tell freeze out working college students who also get claimed by their parents. Those students will not get a check nor will their parents get an extra benefit as it's only for children under 17.

The orange man boy wants to put his signature on the stimulus checks. That is how petty this motherfucker is. He bankrupted a casino, stole from his own charity and started so many scams and you dumb motherfuckers voted for this guy.

I knew he would be a shitty President, I just prayed nothing serious happened. He laughed at the Coronavirus and so did most of you. Now many of your old friends, mothers ,fathers , grandparents will die.

Jesus Fucking Christ, Inbred dumbfucks like you even have to come up with acronyms to defend your worthless president,

I don't need a cure, but you need a fucking brain transplant . You can't think on your own gomer . This reminds me of deliverance . A bunch of front tooth missing mutants saying that Trump told the truth to American about the dangers of COVID-19. He laughed at it and so did most of the morbid rednecks on here.

if anyone here is an bonafide inbred... its FZ asshole to the max.
