Welcome to the Economic Stimulus Payment Calculator
In order to determine whether you qualify for a stimulus payment, we will ask you a series of questions.

Before You Start

The result from this tool is just an estimate.
Allow approximately 5-10 minutes to complete this tool.
Please answer all questions on each page.
Remember the answer you get is only as accurate as the data you enter!

Thank you for posting this link, I have shared the website soooo many times elsewhere that I see it in my sleep!

I figured I wouldn't be the only one interested in what we might be getting back ~ lol! I didn't realize just how little we made last year ~ sad! With this money we might be able to fill up the gas tank a couple of times :laughing:

I totally understand. We made the least amount than we have in years last year. I have a family member at the IRS so I was given that link awhile back, I check often to see if anything changes. I'll be using mine to get school clothes, shoes and supplies and then dh needs to get a used motor to put in the truck. As for any extra's, I would love to get a outside swing or BBQ grill, maybe a picnic table. I can check the garage sales and flea markets, they are too high new. Wish I could win them, lol.

Then again, by the time it arrives I will need to pay bills! That is always how it goes. There really is no getting around the motor (unless we win a car :laughing: ) and school clothes, shoes and supplies is a priority since kids can't go without them :scratch: Can't count my chickens before they hatch, need to wait for the check to arrive to make final decisions on where the money goes. Would love to fill up the propane tank but, too many things have to get done.

This last summer was just a nightmare for us ~ with my kidney failure and then Jimmie ended up having two surgeries ~ so not only did he miss work ~ but he didn't work any overtime ~ so it really cut into our checks.

We just started looking into the budget to see what we could cut out without hurting ~ of course he was really ready to snip my stuff...I told him we would do something that wouldn't affect just me ~lol! In other words, I'm not getting rid of the internet...I would go crazy. He can drive me NUTS when he goes into this mode :cussing:
