You'll receive something, amount unknown--just as soon as the politicos add there favorite pork recipients to the bill-I haven't gotten anything yet. I'll take the $600, but if you really want to stimulate me, where's the $2,000?
Same here my bank sent an e mail..Just checked my online account at the Credit Union. $1,200.00 total (Wife & I) will be deposited January 1st.
Only $600.? That's useless for many, like me.The stimulus check is displaying in my bank account already, but it says the post date is 1/4. Nooooooo
You can always return it to the government, ya know.Only $600.? That's useless for many, like me.
And also useless for many who have had no loss of income due to the pandemic. I hope they donate it to others more needy, but I expect most will just put it in the bank.Only $600.? That's useless for many, like me.
So you believe that those of us who are working should be giving our stimulus money to someone whose not? That seems a bit presumptuous.And also useless for many who have had no loss of income due to the pandemic. I hope they donate it to others more needy, but I expect most will just put it in the bank.

No I don't think that I am.putting words in someone elses' mouth.

Yes.Do you have to declare this as income and if so does that mean paying taxes on it. Asking as a northern neighbour.
Why? This thing is a joke. I have no need for the first one and even less of a need for this check. People making $74,999 get the same check as those that have not worked in 6,7,8,9 months?So you believe that those of us who are working should be giving our stimulus money to someone whose not?

According to the IRS, the answer is NO.Yes.
Or send it to meYou can always return it to the government, ya know.
Or spend it, hmm, I spent it, doing my part for the economic recoveryAnd also useless for many who have had no loss of income due to the pandemic. I hope they donate it to others more needy, but I expect most will just put it in the bank.
I think it was people whose AGI was less than 70,000. Seriously, If you don’t need it, give it to charity or meWhy? This thing is a joke. I have no need for the first one and even less of a need for this check. People making $74,999 get the same check as those that have not worked in 6,7,8,9 months?
No you do notYes.
I agree and when they were getting 600, wow, no wonder they didn’t want to go back to work.If the unemployed are getting $300 a week per person in a single household that's $1200. That's almost as much as I make going out there every day to work. You expect me to believe that they need assistance? Come on! You seem to forget that those of us who are working right now are also at higher risk and we have bills to pay too. I think it's wrong to try to guilt people into giving money to others when they are not without funds. They have options for assistance. We don't. We still have to buy our groceries and pay our bills. We don't get to live rent and utility free during this. We don't get any food stamps. We are still having to take care of ourselves. I need that $600 for glasses. I'm not giving it to someone whose getting $1200 a month to sit on their butt. Whether by choice or otherwise. If that makes me selfish then so be it. I don't see anyone offering to help me pay for the things I can't afford. It would be different if there were no jobs out there for them to get. Sometimes the way people think just irritates me.
