Unemployment is a state thing, but the fed govt has bolstered it with an extra $600/mo for 4 months is my understanding.

Might be time to update Everett Dirksen's quote, as the "B" word is sounding a bit paltry these days.

The Dirksen Office Building is one of three office buildings for US Senators. The first one is the (Richard) Russell Office Building. The third is the (Phillip) Hart Office Building.

Dirksen was a legend in the 1950s and 60s.

On a not completely unrelated note, Russell was credited with the ditty “Don’t tax you, don’t tax me, tax the fellow behind the tree,” but similar phrases had been circulating at the same time, so he may have embellished on something he heard.

That may or may not work for you, but it's something to be aware of next filing season.

I'll look further in to the tax credit and see if it fits our situation..
