Advice for Taxpayers

No, it is an advance of a tax credit. Like in the previous times they have done this, when you file 2020 taxes, there will be a provision to take the tax credit and whether you already received it. Most will net to zero at that point.

Some will receive it at that time if they didn't have it disbursed already, and I'm not sure but some I guess could owe it back depending on circumstances and exactly how they implement it on the 2020 return.

But the crux is most will just net to zero and you will move on. Originally Posted by eccielover

The biggest rule anyone should abide by...

Don’t take advice from a ignorant dumbass Trump supporter who votes for another dumb ass that has caused this mess in the first place by his neglect and incompetence
All Trump wants to do is recoup some of the money he’s lost so far by his stupidity.
To the tune of $1 billion this Past mth alone. So glad Karma kicked in. So he’s licking his greedy chops at that $500 bn slush fund.
Who would trust anyone that LIES about his net worth and has a history of going bankrupt multiple times (6)
Suckers like you need that $$$$. I don’t.

it's funny how the right-wing screams about deficits and bailouts, but when they fall on hard times, their hands reach out the farthest, and widest. the right-wingers screamed that TARP was a Corporate bailout when Obama was in charge, but 6.2 trillion (way more than Obama did) is NOT ENOUGH.

those people wanted to block poor people from getting a God Damn dime through the CARES ACT.
I thought he was being light-hearted

yeah, well Bush was President, but it was President-Elect Obama who really churned the recovery engine.. Bush sat there fiddling while large financial firms folded, and while TARP was thrown together, it was Obama's efforts that really got the economy started.

it very well may be, that a Democrat will come in to clean up this mess.
