    Default Thanks DAD now I cannot get my Stimulus check...

    Ok so my last year at school I have been cutting everything pretty cheap. Working to pay for my car and to live. I had a few little incidents where I needed to go to the doctor and dentist and when I called my parents they told me to just go to the local clinic and just pay the $100 or whatever it was going to cost. I ended up doing this 3 times, almost $500 total, and went to the dentist once for a nice fat bill of $1200, after the antibiotics.

    At the time all of this happened I would have to max a credit car just to do anything, you know how it is at school. Well my last digits of my social are 89, so I was suppose to get my stimulus check on the 11th of this month. I have been waiting for a while now and decided to give it until today. I got home from work and went to my parents house. Got the mail and saw nothing still so I called the IRS.

    After talking to a billion different automated people i finally got a person to talk to.

    "Welll Mr. McNamara, because of your dependence status, you are not eldgable for the stimulus check".

    I paused and said "Excuse me, what??!!"

    She then went on to tell me that my parents claimed me this year.

    I went back and forth and told the lady that I didnt live with them. They didnt pay my car note, my insurance, my schooling bill, my cell phone bill, anything. I filed for single and not being a dependent and everything else.

    She cam back and said because THEY claimed me that I still wouldnt be able to get the $600 check.

    Ok so now this is the F'd up part. I call my dad and was like WTF why did you claim me. He said, aint I quote "SO YOU CAN HAVE HEALTH DENTAL AND VISION COVERAGE"...

    I was like WHAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have all this insurance and you guys let me just go to the local clinic and dentist and pay a arm and a leg when I had a $20 co-pay...

    I swear if they werent my biological parents they would be LONG GONE....

    lol...parents.

    Wow, and I thought this was going to be one of those, "Omg, my dad totally, like, grounded me for txtin all the time on my cell phone. How ELSE em i suposed 2 hav a social life?!?!11!/! I HATE HIM1!1!!!" threads.


    Good for you for being so independent! I would seriously try to get them for all those medical bills at the least. It seems like you've been pretty mature up to this point, so I suggest just sitting down with them as an adult, and explaining that since they claimed you for insurance reasons, and you are out a $600 check and $1200+ in medical bills, the least they can do is give you a personal check for $600 for the health insurance you never knew you had (but they did), and the loss of your stimulus check. Good luck!

    I dont really care about the money. It just sucks cause I have tuition coming up on the 8th, and I was relying on the $600 check for books. Now I just have to pull that credit card out and charge it back up again...O well. Maybe I will just ask for the $300 my dad got for claiming me

    dany, sucks for you. yeah i'd ask for my parents to help me pay for my books if anything like that happened, seeing as how they made you spend 1700(minus 200 in copays) that you shouldn't have had to spend to begin with before maxin my credit card out...

    x2. I filed my taxes in January and haven't recieved my little $80 yet. Considering I don't have a job now, that may be something I want to checkup on again for the 4th time.

    Anyways thats awesome you're actually out doing for yourself man. I hope your parents are atleast the type to give you your money back. I know my mom would do something like that...I mean, its only fair considering you are actually out there doing something for yourself.

    H & R Block. I even got the RAL. But only for the FEDS. I keep calling to check on the State and they have kept saying they are going to have sent it out/ going to re-send it out, but I don't have it yet.

    You're welcome. Yeah just call the state and they'll tell you if its been sent out, or sent back and they'll confirm your address.
