New York: The law makers have approved their final seal to the $170 billion plan which intends to ignite the turning down economy. The main centre-piece of the plan is the tax rebates, but the program is still not clear as the IRS and the officials of the Treasury Department are bustling to work out the information. In the interim, here are some features of the plan based on the current government information and analysis of the experts.
• At least 117 million households from low and middle income groups, about 20 million elderly senior citizens without Social Security and about 250,000 handicapped veterans will receive one time rebates. For being qualified for full rebate, the single tax filers have to have the 2007 adjusted gross income less than $75,000 and the joint filers have to have an AGI of less than $150,000.
• People may also get partial rebate depending upon how much their income is excess to the caps.
• People do not have to pay back the rebate, because rebate is a single time tax cut, that means it is an a type of advance on the credit that they have to receive on their 2008 return.
• In order to get a rebate, people have to file the 1040 or the 1040-EZ central tax return for the year 2007.
Henry Paulson, the Treasury Secretary, said on the night of Thursday, that IRS will begin to send out the checks during early May of this year. Last month, he had also mentioned that it may take around 10 weeks to dispatch off all the checks. Therefore, in all cases, people will be able to see money some time between the months May and July. Therefore, it is necessary for all to meet the deadline of the IRS and file before April 15.
