thanks to the new home purchase and all the updating that comes with it, the kids, the loans, and a couple other add ins I should see at least 16k. Time to inject some m50 into the kaiser kart. ---

Bush was the bank bailout. Obama was the stimulus. Iā€™m not a bank, so he didnā€™t help me. If youā€™re talking about the $600in 08, I got fucked on that because I was still a college student the year before. ---

Yeah, that one was really poorly designed. If you were 21+ and a dependent, your parents didnā€™t get to claim you and you didnā€™t get to claim yourself, you basically fell through the cracks ---

Just an additional point to mention regarding the First Time Homebuyer Credit. The IRS is requiring those filing the FTHB Credit Form 5405, not only do you have to include a copy of the HUD-1 but you CANNOT EFILE. You can only paper file. They wonā€™t even begin processing returns with the FTHB Credit on them until mid-February with the earliest refunds expected in mid to late March. I have already seen some returns get kicked back requesting additional documentation for proof that the home is a primary residence as well. ---

> [@Joe](#): > > ā€¦Or you just didnā€™t want to pay out of pocket for your health insuranceā€¦ Or just dont have health insurance haha Only thing I donā€™t pay for is rent and was claimed by my mom all these years and I only would get 2-300 back from fed, and would always owe state. First year I claim myself I get $3k back. Over 4 years thats $12k I could have put towards school which is over 30% of my loans. Private school FTL. ---
