Found this at snopes.com, the info came directly from the IRS website:
Well, the IRS has finally put out information regarding the tax rebates that answers most of the frequently asked questions. I've outlined the information below:
The Internal Revenue Service will automatically process rebates of the 2001 tax credit after the taxpayers have filed their returns for Tax Year 2000.
Taxpayers will not have to complete applications, file any extra forms or call the IRS to request their rebates.
The 2001 rebate amount is a maximum of $300 for a single taxpayer, $500 for a head of household and $600 for a married couple filing a joint return.
By mid-July, the IRS will send taxpayers a letter, detailing the payment amount, the week it will be sent and the possibility of an offset for an outstanding government debt. The IRS will also send a letter of explanation to taxpayers who are not eligible for the rebate.
Recipients should keep the letter for reference when completing their 2001 returns.
Taxpayers who have moved since filing their last tax return should receive the IRS letter and the check if they have file a change of address with the U.S. Postal Service. They are matching their records weekly with the Postal Service to update their address information.
Generally, the last two digits of the taxpayer's social security number will determine when the 2001 rebates are mailed, so a person may get a check at a different time than a neighbor or even other family members.
If the last two digits of your
Social Security number are:
_____________________ You should receive your
refund the week of:
________________________
00 - 09 July 23
10 - 19 July 30
20 - 29 August 6
30 - 39 August 13
40 - 49 August 20
50 - 59 August 27
60 - 69 September 3
70 - 79 September 10
80 - 89 September 17
90 - 99 September 24
Because the bank account information provided by the taxpayer when filing the tax return may no longer be applicable, the Treasury will not send the rebates by direct deposit.
Those who have not yet filed a tax return for 2000 will not get any rebate until the IRS processes that return. The sooner they file their returns, the sooner they will receive any rebate due.
Share this information with your family and friends. I'm sure everyone can benefit from this extra money to take a family vacation, cruise, shop until you drop or just pay a bill.
