Could happen if his business takes off suddenly, or if he has huge
capital gains for 2008.

Well, that will be my situation exactly; and I doubt that it is so
unusually, at least in my profession.
As a retired person, I had very little taxable income in 2007. But
this year, I took some contract work that will pay me a 6-digit
taxable wage.

If you had SS you would probably qulaify the rebate this year. But if
not, then you could try to defer some income to 2009 if you think your
income would be over 75k.

The other answers have already told you that to the extent that you don't
qualify based on your 2007 return, you may qualify based on 2008 and receive
it )or part of it) then.
However, it's NOT A CARRYOVER.
