Grocery/gas stores

They have no choice but to work and get out in this weather, some going longer than 24hrs and many not eating to get the job done so people are safe and businesses can operate.

If you are a customer of snow removal, utility/Internet company and receive services during this snow storm, please take a moment and fix a sandwich or offer food, trust me they are running on nothing!!

Did you file your 2021 tax return?

Did you receive the Economic payments in 2021?

Create an IRS account and it will tell you if you received your payment.

If the answers are NO 💲 you still have a chance to file or amend your tax return!!! But don't wait, you must file by April 15th of this year or you lose that money!!!!

Unfortunately you cannot claim the missing rebates from 2018, 2019 and 2020. So don't miss out on the up to $1400 payment for 2021.
