February 2010 is almost over and there has still been no word from President Obama as to the potential continuation of the Stimulus Check program. It is likely that Veterans and anyone collecting Social Security could get a small Stimulus Check this year somewhere in the $250 range.

The Stimulus Check and Stimulus Package are oftentimes confused and it is important to understand the difference. The Stimulus Package is the program that Obama put-together early-on in his Presidency. The goal of this package was to help the economy by assisting companies, creating jobs, and of course – providing money to tax-payers like yourself.

The Stimulus Check is money paid directly to you from the government in an effort to stimulate the economy. Bush did this towards the end of his Presidency and sent a physical check out to millions of Americans. President Obama provided a Stimulus Check in 2010 in the form of a tax rebate. Many Americans expected a physical check in 2009 only to find-out this would simply decrease their taxes.

Now that we are two months into 2010 it is clear that the economy has a way to go and the money from the stimulus package has not directly impacted any of us. Stay-tuned to this site to get the latest information about the stimulus package and when you might be getting a nice free check from the government!

In many cases the money you receive from a Stimulus Package will go-into paying bills or paying your taxes in April. We have compiled some great tax tips to help you save the most money on your taxes in 2010.

Start Early
While this may sound like obvious advice when it comes to taxes starting early could make a major difference in how much money you have to pay or how much money you receive. Rushing and waiting until the last minute could also cause you to make an error which could be costly if later on down the road you are hit with fines for back-taxes!

Contribute to Retirement Accounts
Making payments to an IRA can be tax-deductible if you meet the income restrictions. Make sure to regularly contribute to your retirement accounts because with this deduction you will enjoy some truly free money!

Make Sure You Are Using The Right Forms
This is one of the biggest problems the IRS encounters – incorrect forms used or forms filled-out improperly. If you don’t know if you have the right form or not chances are you don’t! Take the time to ask your accountant or a tax professional before guessing your way through it.

Save Your Return Each Year
Do you have last year’s return? If so it will make this year much easier – if not there is a good chance your accountant has it on file. If you didn’t use an accountant and did your taxes yourself and didn’t save the forms don’t worry – just save them this year…you’ll need them every year!

Tax Deductions Where You Can
Many Americans fear a number of common deductions due to lack of information. Deductions are a crucial part of filing your taxes and can decide whether you pay the government or get money back. Always be 100% honest when filing your taxes but look for deductions where you can!
