Tax Rebate question?
I heard on the radio we are supposed to fill out a tax form (for the rebates that got approved?)
I am lost on what to do.

Re: Tax Rebate question?
You need to file your 2007 federal tax return before the government will send you anything, if you qualify. That must be the forms that they're referring to.

If you file your taxes, they'll know who to send it to.

Re: Tax Rebate question?
You only have to file your 2007 taxes--that's it. no forms to fill out besides your regular 1040
for senior citizens who may not be required to file taxes--they need only fill out the top portion of their 1040 form with their names, address, and S.S. #s and write "Tax Rebate" on top and mail it in
forget what you hear on the radio
this is the link to the OFFICIAL Irs Stimulus Package info center:
irs site
Q. What do I need to do to get an economic stimulus payment?
A. All you need to do is file a federal income tax return for 2007. Even if you are not otherwise required to file a tax return, you must file a 2007 return in order to receive a payment this year. Although some filers, such as high-income filers, will not qualify for a stimulus payment, most will.
In most cases, you will fill out your return, reporting all your income, deductions and credits as you normally would. But even if you are not required to file, you must file a 2007 return to get a stimulus payment this year. Low-income workers, Social Security beneficiaries, certain railroad retirees and those who receive certain benefits from the Department of Veterans Affairs who normally don’t file may receive a stimulus payment if they do. The IRS will provide special filing instructions for those who do not otherwise have a filing requirement. The instructions will explain which lines on the tax return the filers need to complete.
You do not need to calculate the amount of the stimulus payment. If you qualify, the IRS will automatically figure it and send it to you. The IRS will also send you a notice showing the amount of your payment. You do not need to call the IRS or fill out any other special forms.
