If You Are Working, You Are Getting Your 2009 Stimulus Payment

There have been a lot of questions about the 2009 stimulus payment. The good news is, if you are working, you are already getting it! Beginning April 1, all employer had to adjust the withholding tables down to the number based on the stimulus bill passed by Congress.

You should be seeing around $8 per pay check for singles and around $15 for couples. The great part is, unlike the 2008 Stimulus plan, your teenager(over 17) or college student if working, will get the benefit of this plan. For 08, if you were over 17, your parents did not get the extra $300 and if you were claimed on their return, you did not get it either.

For 2009, everyone who works gets the benefit. If you are on Social Security, you will be sent a check for $250.
