Other than that, I'm not sure what it could be. I recommend using the official stimulus rebate calculator for a better idea of how much you might receive. If that gives you a different number than the IRS sent you, try calling the IRS at 1-866-234-2942. Good luck. Andrea,

I owe nothing in loans, to the IRS and made well over $3,000 in 2007...but not $75,000. I don't understand why I am not receiving the whole $600. I am only 20 years old and there's nothing that I am aware of that would be keeping me from the full amount. I received a notice in the mail for my stimulus check, and it was only for $338.

Try calling the IRS at 1-866-234-2942. It will probably take longer than a week to resolve the issue though. Good luck. Teri,

There have been a few cases where the IRS had made mistakes in their calculations, and some instances where people thought they would receive a different amount.

The problem is, most states do not automatically take the taxes out for the person receiving unemployment benefits, but leave it up to them to pay the taxes when they file. This can leave people with a big tax bill. I'm not sure the laws changed for this. It is possible that the taxes were not paid when the unemployment benefits were paid out, and now the taxes are due.

I recommend using the official stimulus rebate calculator for a better idea of how much your father should have received. If that gives you a different number than the IRS sent you, try calling the IRS at 1-866-234-2942. Good luck. Cookie,
