Federal tax rebates are on the way

By Web Staff

Starting Monday, April 28, 7 million Americans will have an easier time paying for gas and groceries as tax rebate checks begin showing up in bank accounts.

Your social security number will determine when you get your rebate.

If the last two digits are between 00 and 20 and if you signed up for direct deposit, then you should get your rebate check today.

According to a National Retail Federation survey conducted in February by BIGresearch, consumers plan to spend 40.6 percent of tax rebate checks, which will provide an immediate $42.9 billion boost to the economy. The survey also found that the $105.7 billion distributed in tax rebate checks will be used to pay down debt ($30 billion), saved ($19.8 billion), invested ($4.4 billion), and used to pay down medical bills ($4.6 billion).
