No. The IRS will collect your rebate first.

According to the IRS:

Q. I'm eligible for a payment but I still owe federal income tax from a prior year. Will my payment be reduced?

A. Yes. For this purpose, the stimulus payment is treated like any other tax refund. This means that part or all of your payment can be used to pay past-due federal or state income taxes or non-tax federal debt such as student loans and child support. If this occurs, you will receive a letter explaining how the stimulus payment was applied.

It will probably go towards the unpaid debt you owe them.

NO. If there's one thing the IRS is efficient at, it's seizing from or not sending money to people who owe them money.

Individuals who pay income taxes would get up to $600, working couples $1,200 and those with children an additional $300 per child under the agreement. Workers who make at least $3,000 but don’t pay taxes would get $300 rebates.

Most households will get these checks, although individuals with adjusted gross incomes of more than $75,000 and couples making more than $150,000 will see less or nothing at all.

The biggest change since the original proposal: Those who paid no income taxes will get $300 as long as they earned at least $3,000, including veterans disability or Social Security benefits. Checks start going out in May...though the IRS will already be overwhelmed processing 2007 tax returns, so you may not get a check until July or after.

Remember, this is your money you're getting back, and the rebate checks are basically an advance on your 2009 refund. You will get a reduced tax refund next year.

The only people for whom this really is free money are low-income folks (those who earn at least the minimum $3,000 required to trigger the checks or who receive at least $3,000 in Social Security or veterans benefits) who won't end up owing any taxes for 2008.


The first rebate payments could begin going out in May, and most people could have them by July, though the IRS will already be overwhelmed processing 2007 tax returns.

The rebate is not taxable at the federal level, and it's unlikely the states would tax it, though that's not entirely clear at this point.

The only people for whom this really is free money are low-income folks (those who earn at least the minimum $3,000 required to trigger the checks or who receive at least $3,000 in Social Security or veterans benefits) who won't end up owing any taxes for 2008.

Are you talking about the rebate? No, it will be taken toward what you owe.

PER your installment agreement: any refunds due to you will be offset to your balance. You must still make your installment agreeement payment to risk default of the installment agreement.
