Is there a Stimulus Check for 2009

Monday, January 25th, 2010

Is there a Stimulus Check for 2009?  When did the Stimulus Check 2009 come out?  When will my 2009 stimulus check come?

Yes, there was a 2009 stimulus check for those that are seniors, retired, veterans.    It was a $250 stimulus check that was sent out during the summer of 2009.  If you qualified you automatically got it, as there was nothing you had to apply for.

If you think you should have got one but didn’t, contact either your social security dept., you military veterans dept, or the rail road retirees dept.

Stay tuned for the Stimulus Check 2010

When does the 2010 stimulus check come out?

Tuesday, January 19th, 2010

Stimulus check for 2010, when does it come out?

The 2010 stimulus check will probably come out the same time it did last year for the 2009 stimulus check in late spring / early summer.  This will more then likely be a $250 stimulus check sent those that are retired on social security or are veterans from the military.

Everyone else still has the same stimulus benefits that are being carried over from 2009.

I’m interesting in applying for a stimulus check for my mother, who’s is 76yrs old and is currently on a fix income.

Stimulus Check Question: I’m interesting in applying for a stimulus check for my mother, who’s is 76yrs old and is currently on a fix income. So any money can help, What steps i need to do to obtain these funds?

Answer: The stimulus check isn’t something that you apply for, it is something that you either qualify for or you don’t.  The 2009 stimulus check that were sent out last spring/summer were sent to those on social security (as of Jan 2009), military veterans and retired rail road workers.  If your mother was in any of those categories, she should have received a stimulus check.

There are stipulations such as, if she was working (which may or may not apply to your mother) she would not get a $250 stimulus check, or else would have to pay it back, because she would be getting the higher amount tax credit taken out of each paycheck.

Going into 2010 there is possible word of a 2010 stimulus check again for those on social security, and possibly for the veterans.  Those that are working are still getting the same tax credit on each paycheck to total $400-$600 over the coarse of the year.

Cash For Appliances

Tuesday, January 5th, 2010

There is a new federal stimulus program that began Jan 1, 2010 called Cash for Appliances.

This new stimulus program is similar to the Cash for Clunkers that ran throughout 2009 where you traded in your junker car for a new one with better gas mileage and reduced CO2 emissions.

The new Cash for Appliances program running in several states lets you trade in your appliances for a discount on a new one that is more energy efficient.

You can get up to $100 rebates on washing machines, $75 on a refrigerator and $50 for a room air conditioner.  This rebate works on nearly any new energy star appliance in your household.

Check the new federal site for more information on Cash for Appliances

President Obama lowered expectations in 2010

Tuesday, January 5th, 2010

In 2009, President Obama set some mighty high goals for his first year in office.  To his credit, he hit most of them.  The big winners were the multi billion dollar stimulus package, making progress for financial reform, lowering unemployment rates and dealing with terrorist threats.

Since this is a blog about the Stimulus Check, I won’t go over the points from the other achievements President Obama has made.   The Stimulus Package that he signed into law shortly after coming into office created many opportunities and hope for businesses and individuals.

Not everyone can agree on how they see eye to eye on if what Obama did was the best, but it did work.  He got money into the hands of most of the people who needed it most.

Most of the plans from the stimulus package about helping those that are currently employed remain in effect through 2010.  For those currently not working and retired, there will more then likely be a 2010 stimulus check coming your way this spring/summer.
