IRS Announces Order of Rebate Checks

by Kelly on March 18th, 2008

My inbox has been filled with folks wanting to know when the IRS would begin mailing rebate checks and how the order would be determined. Well, wait no more. The IRS has released a statement explaining the order of the rebate checks. The order is as follows:

Remember that this schedule is based on timely filing. Extensions will cause a delay.

To find out how much you can expect to receive, check out my prior post on the economic stimulus payment calculator.

My husband died last April. He was on SS disability as well as drew a pension. I worked for a marketing firm. I filed income tax jointly as usual listing him first. His SS# ends in 00. Mine in 92. I received a notice from the IRS that I was entitled to $300. I don’t understand why not $600. Also, what SS # would they go by since apparently Im not getting anything for him?
