Starting in May, the Treasury will begin sending economic stimulus payments to more than 130 million households. To receive a payment, taxpayers must have a valid Social Security number, $3,000 of income and file a 2007 federal tax return. IRS will take care of the rest. Eligible people will receive up to $600 ($1,200 for married couples), and parents will receive an additional $300 for each eligible child younger than 17. Millions of retirees, disabled veterans and low-wage workers who usually are exempt from filing a tax return must do so this year in order to receive a stimulus payment.

Economic Stimulus Payment Calculator
Welcome to the Economic Stimulus Payment Calculator
In order to determine whether you qualify for a stimulus payment, we will ask you a series of questions. Your entries are anonymous and the information will be used only for the purpose of determining your eligibility. All entries are erased when you exit or start over. See the "IRS Privacy Policy" for more information.
Before You Start
* Have your 2007 Form 1040, Form 1040EZ, or Form 1040A available. You will be entering information from one of these forms.
* The result from this tool is just an estimate.
* Allow approximately 5-10 minutes to complete this tool.
* Please answer all questions on each page.
Remember the answer you get is only as accurate as the data you enter!
I found this very useful to see what, if anything, our family may qualify for. (It only took me about 1 minute. )
