7. yep! $20 more biweekly for me.
It comes at a good time because we just took a temporary pay cut here, so I am doing whatever I can to try to make that up so I won't feel the pinch so much.

2. My check was $22 higher
This month the extra money had to go to pay my car registration fee, but next month I'll use it to buy a Mother's Day present.

3. In March. My monthly pay went up by @$80 on my March paycheck.
It's not a huge amount on the check, but @$1000 over the year.

12. The credit can be claimed on your 2009 taxes
If your employer doesn't get their act together.

13. You get NOTHING and like it! No paycheck here either.
But I did send the Treasury $986 today. I really could have used that money, having been unemployed for 6 mos. x(

17. Yes, starting with the April 1 paycheck.
Around $23 more. Not a lot, but it helped with my DISH bill. :)
