It's considered income. If you've ever done your own taxes, you'll see that your refund(s) count as income also.

A. No. You will not owe tax on your payment when you file your 2008 federal income tax return. But you should keep a copy of the IRS letter you receive later this year listing the amount of your payment.

Q. Will the payment I receive reduce my 2008 refund or increase the amount I owe for 2008?

A. No, the stimulus payment will not reduce your refund or increase the amount you owe when you file your 2008 return.

^ irs website says that the stims are basically a "gimme" ???

refunds count as income? hmmmmm..... guess mine have been getting done wrong all these years then...

Finally got mine in the mail. I found out that if you use turbo tax(or simmilar software) and have them take the filing fees out of your return then your check will be mailed.
