Tax Rebate Rewind TurboTax Makes it Easy for Qualifying Taxpayers to...

Millions of taxpayers may get a second chance to qualify for a tax rebate, commonly referred to as a recovery rebate credit, under the economic stimulus package passed last February.

TurboTax (http://turbotax.intuit.com/)'s174;, the nation'ss best-selling, No. 1-rated tax preparation software (http://turbotax.intuit.com/) from Intuit Inc. (Nasdaq: INTU), makes it easy for taxpayers to see if they'sre eligible for a recovery rebate credit, even if they received a rebate in 2008. It will also tell them exactly how much money they have coming.

Taxpayers may be eligible for a rebate check when filing their 2008 tax returns if they:

>    Filed a 2007 tax return, but didn'st qualify for a rebate, or qualified for less than the full amount due to their income, dependents or filing status.

>    Had a financial or other life change in 2008, such as getting married, having a baby, or a significant change in income.

Getting every dollar you deserve has never been easier, or more important, said Bob Meighan, CPA and vice president with TurboTax. TurboTax automatically determines whether you qualify for a rebate and then tells you how much to expect based on your 2008 taxes.

Eligible taxpayers will likely receive their rebate check in 2009 after filing their 2008 tax return. For most taxpayers, the recovery rebate is an advance credit on their 2008 taxes that will not need to be repaid, deducted from their refund or taxed.

Determining Eligibility:

Who may be eligible for a second chance to claim a rebate

>    Individuals who did not qualify for a rebate because their 2007 income was too high, but were recently laid off from their job will likely qualify, but they need to file a 2008 tax return

>    Families who had a baby in 2008 may be able to claim an additional $300 assuming they otherwise qualify.

More information about qualifying for second stimulus is available at turbotax.com.
