May 16th, 2008 · No Comments
If you’re wondering where your stimulus check from the IRS is, here’s something you might be interested in from TurboTax: Recently, you may have received a letter from the IRS advising you when to expect your Economic Stimulus Payment (rebate).

May 16th, 2008 · No Comments

Some of the tax preparers did an insufficient job of ex

May 16th, 2008 · No Comments
Several weeks ago I made an appeal to our congregation at FBCMB to consider the truth that everything belongs to God, including the “tax rebate” that is supposed to be coming to so many of us. I fully recognize that there are many people (many in our congregation) for whom that check will be a great blessing. They need it to survive.
