I had my daughter on May 19th so I wasn't eligible to claim her for the stimulus plan check that everyone got. So come to find out that there is actually a credit called the Recovery Rebate Credit and I was eligible to get $300 extra on my taxes for having my daughter. It was quite a nice surprise!


On another note, I will be getting enough back in a tax refund to pay off 2 maybe 3 credit cards! I am sooo excited.

DS was born on March 3 (my baby is going to be 1 soon :-()I knew it was coming since the rebate was on 2008 taxes, but they determined the amount by your 2007 tax return. We're getting a big refund anyway, but every little bit is great.
