Facts and figures on U.S. checks
• Checks will be mailed mid-May through mid-July, depending on the last two digits of your Social Security number, with lower numbers getting checks first.
• The checks will be worth up to $600 per person $1,200 per married couple plus $300 per child.
• To get a check, you must have filed a 2007 tax return, which was due April 15.
• If you're retired, a disabled veteran or someone who normally doesn't file a tax return, you still can file a 2007 tax return before Oct. 15 so you can get your check. See www.irs.gov for instructions.
• Those who filed tax returns early and asked for direct deposit in a bank account could get them as early as Monday.
• Stimulus checks phase out for those making over $75,000 a year, or $150,000 per married couple, at 5 percent of the total over that threshold. So, say a couple with no children made $160,000. That couple is $10,000 over the threshold, and 5 percent of that is $500. So, if they were in line to get $1,200, they'd instead get $700.
