In an effort to boost the economy, President Bush signed a stimulus package of income-tax rebates into law earlier this year - but what does it mean to you?

1. Eligibility: If you have a valid Social Security number, filed a 2007 tax return, and made at least $3,000 last year, you're eligible for the package.
2. Amount: Individuals will receive $600. Married couples will receive $1,200.
3. Timeline: The Treasury will start sending payments in May. Distribution dates are based on the last two digits of your Social Security number and whether you chose to receive the funds via direct deposit or paper check.

If you're eligible for the package, all you have to do is wait for the funds to arrive - no need to fill out complicated forms or call your accountant. Now that's easy money!
