March was a great month for income. I received all of my study pay at the end of March. It might have been more accurate to divide the pay up between February and March since I earned it both months but since I use cash basis accounting I don’t count the income until I actually receive it. The other big income boost was the tax refund. We received a pretty big refund but since we lose an exemption this year and also lose the making work pay credit we won’t have nearly as big a refund next year.
April income will be much lower since I won’t have those two big sources of income. I did a lot of mystery shopping in March which will be reflected in April’s income so there should be an increase there. I should do about the same on the rest of my alternative income and passive income sources.
