Here’s a nifty graph. It shows when you’ll get your tax rebate based on the numbers in your social security number. I’m not going to tell you what mine is, but as luck would have it, I’m somewhere towards the end of the list. For married couples, the social security number that you file first will be the one that gets the rebate first. Yes, I’m sorry if you’re finding this out now after your filed your taxes, but at least you’ll know when you can expect the rebate. It’s important information if you plan on using the rebate to make a purchase or pay off your current debts. Getting the rebate in May or July could have very different consequences.

If you filed later than April 15 and your social security date has passed, you can expect the check 6 weeks after the point you filed. Single people can expect a $600 maximum payment, while married couples can expect $1200 with $300 for each child. There are several reasons why you won’t get the maximum rebate:
- If you’re single and make over $75,000 or married and make over $150,000 collectively.
- You owe back taxes.
- You have outstanding federal loans, such as child support or student loans.
- Your tax liability is under the maximum amount for your marital situation.
- You failed to file a 2007 return.
- You’re listed as a dependent on someone else’s return.
