$400.00 per kid coming to you

[MeanGene]

Checks will be going out in July at the rate of $400 per child. Why can't everyone get a check again? :)

Woo Hoo! 2 kids are good for something! :D

[SouthernHockeyChick]

Well, I better get knocked up quick then!! :evil: ;)

[StormShaman]

Hey, I have 2 kids!

They have 4 legs and fur and say "meow", but they're still my kids ;)

[talkingcanes]

I've got 3 hairy, barking children, so is my $1200 check in the mail ;)

Hey hey awesome! I've got 8 cats and a dog so I've got a big bonus coming to me! I'm assuming they'll want to keep their money though.... :( But since one owes me approximately 800 bucks (I don't know which one) for pissing in my reciever I think I'll put them in a row and tell them I get to keep ALL of their newly earned money unless the guilty party fesses up. That'll get them shaking in their showshoes. The guilty one will have to pay up its' ENTIRE 400 dollar present from the government in addition to going on work detail for a few weeks and cooking me omelettes or waffles in the morning.

He's getting off lucky though. It could've been him (or her) and the 60-pound dog (sorry Bobo) locked in the cabinet under the sink for 3 or 4 days until one figures out how to use the other for food.

:mad:

I still love the cats though.... Just pretty pissed nearly a grand was flushed down the toilet.

[SouthernHockeyChick]

Hey Folg....when you figure out how to send your cats out on work detail let me know, ok? I've been trying to get mine to pull her considerable weight around here for ages now!! ;)

child tax credits checks of up to $400 per child will begin arriving in the mailboxes of 25 million eligible families in July, the president noted.

Well, don't count your dollars before they hatch - looks like not everyone will be getting them.

Well, since it's a President Bush thing, I guess it'll only apply to families with household incomes over $100,000. . . . . ;)

Hey, once we were audited. During the audit, I asked the tax guy if we could deduct money we paid to our dog sitter when we went on vacation. I was totally serious. I mean if parents can deduct daycare expenses, I think I should be able do the same for my dogs. To make a long story short, the auditor just rolled his eyes at me. . . . . . probably was a dog hater. . . . . :sick:

I totally agree...dogs can be expensive...between food, heartworm medicine and vet bills..then there are the boarding costs or a pet sitter..it is ONLY fair I think!! :roll:

...and I totally agree about what "income bracket" this will help!! :mad: so from what the chart says..if you make LESS than $41,000, do you get any help??? :roll:

[MeanGene]

I think I read that if your combined household income is below 110,000 you are eligible. That would be me if I had kids! :D

[Jeff O Rocks]

Thanks MG..Unless they include 4 legged hairy children...I am left out of the check distribution!! :sad:

[crazy4canes]

Didn't they do this a couple of years ago? Only it was like $600. Anyway, doesn't matter, NC will find a way to get it back from me. :sad:
