To help taxpayers like you and me survive through this economic recession, the government is making efforts to put more money in the people’s pockets–especially those who make a low income, Social Security and Railroad Retirement beneficiaries, and recipients of certain veteran’s payments.

You can find out if you qualify to receive the economic stimulus rebate by checking out the Q & A on the IRS website.

The pre-requisite for anyone wishing to receive this rebate in the mail is to first file their tax returns. With the October 15th deadline approaching quickly for filing a tax return, many people whose income are less than $8,000 or $9,000 that usually do not file are now preparing to send in their tax returns.

If you are not legally required to file a tax return (because your income is too low to owe taxes), this is a good time for you to do so before the October 15th deadline passes. Whether you owe the IRS taxes or not, filing a tax return by October 15th is in your best interest.

For those who owe back taxes, it’s important to resist procrastination in hopes that the tax problems will automatically go away. The only way for you to resolve your accumulated back taxes is to do something about it. Ignoring the IRS will only give them more reasons to penalize you.

Many people find themselves paralyzed by fear that facing their IRS debt head on will be too traumatic–so they wait until the letter in the mail from the IRS before getting tax help from a tax attorney. Hiding your IRS letter under piles of magazines will not resolve your back taxes.

You can listen to my Big Biz Show interview to learn about ways you can reduce your potential IRS penalties by filing on time even if you don’t have the money to pay all of your taxes.
