When isn’t money on our minds? While there is still half a month left before you have to file taxes you might be salivating over the economic stimulus check for $600 that is supposed to come by summertime. Let’s make sure you and everybody else in Michigan gets theirs. All you need is $3000 in income of just about any kind from last year and you’ll have to file taxes even if you normally don’t have to. You can even do this online for free on the IRS website. These tax rebates will start coming to our mailboxes in May based on the last two digits of the filer’s social security number.
The Southeast Michigan Regional Asset Building Coalition will host an “Economic Stimulus Payment Day” from 9:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday at the St. John’s Episcopal Church, next to Comerica Park, at 50 E. Fisher Freeway in Detroit.
The Detroit office of the IRS also will have hours from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday at 477 Michigan Ave., which is the McNamara Federal Building.
