2. We should be getting $1200 for filing married jointly, but they are only giving us $669.00 ???
I'm so confused!
Anyone else getting jipped and received a letter in the mail?? |
I believe the reason they set the 12/31/1990 date is because the stimulus payment is actually an advance of next years' tax refund. So imagine next year when you file taxes, this payment is part of that refund. At that time, during the year, she will have been over 18.
