    Mine is all ready sitting in the bank .. Did my taxes as soon as I got my W2 and that was like the 2nd week of January.

I thought they did it untill they were 18, or out of school, or even use to do it if they were still going to school. That really sucks!
    I guess she can go out and get a job ha-ha, j/k !!
    The credit is "earned income credit" for each child. I know it changed this year - thank Obama and his Stimulus package. It was 18 last year and I only know it changed this year since my BFF now has to PAY taxes (finally). She was able last year to claim her 18 year old son (turned 18 during the year) and her 16 year old twins. Well the twins turned 17 this past December and she had no idea the laws had changed. So yes Jasmine the laws did change on the EIC child credits you can now claim. You can claim anyone else but you don't get the additional amount for EIC.

    When I go to the irs website, it says my refund was direct deposited on Feb. 5. But it's not there yet.

    yeh mine said the same thing..... I called the bank and they said that is just the deposite into the bank date and it will actually take 1-4 days to go into your account after that.

    It's the 1,000 child tax credit that phases out at 17, not the earned income credit.

    A quick note - the earned income credit now goes for three kids instead of the two in previous years.

    My husband e-filed ours last Friday night and yesterday the site said 19 February it would be deposited but it was deposited into our savings account today. That is the fastest we have ever gotten our refund. Even my Maine refund is scheduled for deposit 19 Feb. My husband's SC return has been accepted but not approved yet,SC is slow anyways.

    Well, hell. Hubby got his around the 5th. Mine still says around the 16th... and I filed like 3 or 4 days after him. *sigh* We're in Tennessee, does it even make a difference?

    I need my money now!

    I filed mine on the 4th and it said originally that I should get mine on the 16th. Now it says I will get it on the 11th. I can't believe how much faster they are this year than in years past. Especially when you use to have to file paper forms and they would take a month or so to get a refund.
