The Administration and Congress have negotiated the outline of how the proposed economic stimulus plan will play out. Here’s how much in rebates you could be getting back, depending on your situation:
Workers who get a paycheck (even if they don’t earn enough to pay federal income taxes): $300
Workers who pay income taxes: $300+
Families with children: $300 per child, with a cap of perhaps $1200 total.
Individuals who make $75,000+ or couples who make $150,000+: nothing.
Drat, no Mormon bonanza.
