Are we getting a stimulus check for 2010?

Friday, February 12th, 2010

Currently there is talks of getting a 2010 stimulus check that would be similar to that of the 2009 stimulus check.

This 2010 Stimulus Check would be another $250 stimulus check sent out to those on social security, and military veterans that qualify.   For those that are working, there is still a $400 yearly tax credit that is applied to the entire year, so instead of the $20/paycheck you saw for the half of 2009 it was active, it will be a bit less because it is being covered over the entire year of 2010.

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

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.

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.

President Obama proposes new stimulus check and stimulus funding

Tuesday, December 8th, 2009

Today in Washington President Obama has called for a new round of stimulus spending for our country to help with the staggering economy.  This new stimulus funding could total over $150 Billion Dollars to jolt the economy back on track.

These funds are primarily going to go be used for more road construction, new bridges, tax breaks for small businesses, tax breaks for energy efficient home upgrades and a 2010 stimulus check.  All of these are aimed at getting money flowing, getting people employed and getting money in the hands of those that need it.

President Obama wants to give an additional $250 to seniors and veterans, similar to the 2009 stimulus check.  This check would be handed out in a similar manner to those that received one this year, plus those that weren’t eligible this year that would be for next year’s stimulus check would also receive one.

2010 Stimulus Check

Monday, November 16th, 2009

Currently at this time there is no 2010 Stimulus Check.

President Obama has recently gone to Congress to get them to approve a bill that will allow those on Social Security and Veterans to receive a $250 check similar to that of the 2009 Stimulus Check.  At this time there is no official word on when or if these stimulus checks will go out.  However it is likely that these checks will go out late spring / early summer in 2010 if and when they do happen.

For the rest of America that are currently employed.  There more then likely won’t be a 2010 Stimulus Check because of the tax credit that has been set aside for everyone.  Remember how you are paying ~$20/week less in taxes over the year as a Stimulus Check?  That same amount will be deducted from January 1 to the end of the year, so it is possible that it will be more like $12-$15/week instead.

Obama Seeks $250 Check For Retirees And Veterans

Friday, November 13th, 2009

Earlier this month President Obama in front of congress suggested that they put together a plan that would send a second stimulus check to retirees and veterans.  This check would be sent early next year in the form of a 2010 stimulus check.

This stimulus check would be sent out instead of a cost of living increase for retirees and veterans alike.   Also a factor in the decision is that inflation has been negative as current recession that we’re in has been driving down prices of all goods in every market.

Is there going to be a second stimulus check?

In 2008 there was no second 2008 stimulus check.  So far that looks like the same thing is going to happen again in 2009.  There are currently no plans of talks for a second 2009 stimulus check.

A couple weeks ago, there were some rumors going around that a second stimulus check might be in the fold, but nothing came of it.

Veterans may get a second stimulus check in 2010

Thursday, October 15th, 2009

An estimated 2 million veterans may be eligible to receive a 2nd $250 stimulus check in 2010.

President Obama thinks that a second stimulus check in 2010 would help both the economy and the veterans that received theses new checks. The plan would very similar to how stimulus checks were sent out in 2009 to those senior citizens, retired and disabled workers and the other groups that qualified.

This plan for a 2nd stimulus check would just need to get lawmakers approval and reasoning on why it would be beneficial for those that would receive it. This only applies to those veterans that are living in the United States, Puerto Rico or Guam.

This round of stimulus would cost the US Government about 13 billion dollars.
