老杨

阿尔伯塔省政府消息，本省居民将在2006年1月份开始陆续收到政府寄来的支票。收到支票的人必须是2005年9月1日之前成为阿尔伯塔居民，并且已经报了2004年的税。每个人收到的$400将不用上税，总额在$13亿到$14亿之间。

/ p" W, v) K1 I+ U) F; a; ^罪犯将不会收到支票。支票不会寄给孩子，但是孩子的第一看护者（通常是孩子的母亲）将收到支票。如果在2004年报税之后搬家了，请打电话1-800-959-8281进行地址更改，否则将不会收到支票。一些常见问题请参考如下内容：

1 {# |9 |0 S2 q2 i. m% W& EIf the surplus turns out to be bigger at the end of the year than you are currently forecasting, will there be another round of cheques?
Government designated a dollar amount now so we don't have to wait for the final audited tally in June 2006 to provide a rebate. At this point, it's a "one-time" program reflecting the unexpected increase in revenue.


When will the cheques be distributed?
The Canada Revenue Agency is expected to issue the rebate cheques to Albertans in January 2006. There will be supplementary runs starting in March 2006 to handle special situations.

You can still receive a rebate as long as you file a 2004 return by December 31, 2006. A copy of the 2004 tax return form is available online at http://www.cra-arc.gc.ca/formspubs/t1general/alberta-e.html. You will receive a rebate, but it will not arrive in the January 2006 cheque run.

How do I make sure I receive rebates for my children?
Children whose families already receive the monthly Canada Child Tax Benefit or the Alberta Family Employment Tax Credit will automatically qualify for the Alberta 2005 Resource Rebate.
If you have never registered your children for the Canada Child Tax Benefit, you should do so by completing an application available online at http://www.cra-arc.gc.ca/E/pbg/tf/rc66/README.html
Parents who have not registered their children in time to receive the payment by January will receive a payment for the children at a later date. To avoid delays in processing your application, please include a copy of your child's birth certificate for children one year old and up.

申请孩子牛奶金的时候不是报过么？还有一张退税（2003年.2004年）的表，你家没报么？能拿几百元钱呢。

Spouses of deadbeat dads and moms will get millions of dollars in overdue child and spousal support as a result of the Alberta government's "resource rebate" program, provincial officials say.
) v5 d8 _0 w% ?. `! h/ D
1 n+ b- @2 O+ q% p( m& kThe program will distribute $400 to every man, woman and child in the province.
: z0 x$ q$ W- h4 _4 ^
( `$ E7 c/ B$ A; m! CHowever, parents in arrears on child and spousal support will have their share of the money seized by the provincial Maintenance Enforcement Program, which collects support payments on behalf of dependent spouses and children.
- _$ X  e% o  S5 r( B7 d& s9 U
Justice Department spokeswoman Shannon Haggerty says that will allow enforcement program staff to collect millions of dollars worth of support payments that they may not have otherwise been able to collect.

"It will be in the millions but we don't know how many millions right now," she says.

1 s# t; e6 R1 _- F" TAbout 20,000 so-called deadbeat parents are badly in arrears on maintenance payments owed to estranged spouses and children. Another 30,000 are also in arrears but are making attempts to pay their bills.
& Y4 S6 W/ P, L3 r7 C$ |
# c- J+ q5 B6 X6 ]1 W  EIf $400 was seized by every one of the 20,000 parents in arrears, the Maintenance Enforcement Program would collect $8 million that it would not have otherwise received.

But Haggerty says many of those badly in arrears on their payments will not collect the $400 "resource rebate" because they don't file income tax returns. Albertans have to file a tax return to be eligible for the money. Many deadbeat parents fail to file tax returns to avoid having to make maintenance payments.

In the last calendar year, the Maintenance Enforcement Program collected $167 million of $199 million in overdue support payments.
