Point being that at THIS TIME what if anything that may be required of
SSDI and VA disability recipients is unknown.The IRS will post the
proper method to file for the rebate if necessary on their web site at
the link provided. As for something other than passive being required
I don't see it as showing any such thing. My current SSDI funds are
handled by the Treasury not the IRS. The treasury department is the
agency that will be sending out checks for this program working with
the SSA VA and IRS. The only thing for sure the IRS will have to do is
order checks for those filing tax returns and possibly giving the SSA
and VA list of those being paid through their system.

I would love to see some of these people that insist on making their
own rules in the other lane at a drag race. If they drive drag like
they follow government instructions I would be guaranteed a win every
time. As their early buzzer sounded disqualifying them I would know
all I needed to do was wait for my green lights and make it to the
finish line.

BTW: I'm the guy that located and posted the IRS link. Who in the heck
are you? I don't recognize the name as anyone who has ever posted here
before.
