Also, when they did in 2002, when you did your taxes for that year, you had to reduce that amount from what was withheld. So, if you normally would have gotten a $200 refund, you ended up owing $100 at the end of the year since you had already received $300. It was like a tax refund in advance. So, if you usually owe on your taxes (or expect to this year), I'd recommend saving that money to pay it back by April 15th, 2009.
