    What are your stimulus checks going to? I'm going to use it all towards what we owe on our car.

    They "sent" them to my old address, and they were never forwarded to me. I asked them to send me another copy, but it took almost 6 weeks for them to finally get them sent out. I'm supposed to get them by certified mail today or tomorrow.

    LOL I mean, unless they actually go into my checking account and steal (ANOTHER) 600 dollars (that I don't have) - then I don't care.

    All the taxes and whatnot I pay every year, I never expect to see back. Therefore, I'm pretty happy-go-lucky when it comes to the IRS.

    My question is how does this affect next year's return?

    this is NOT free money.

    Your tax refund next year is going to be $300 (or $600 or whatever the amount is for you) less than it would have been without this stimulus. All this is is a 1-year advance on that money.

    Postal Workers tend to be more receptive if you wear a ski mask and speak forcefully.

    No need to take a number too!
