Even though not everything we call a stimulus check is not this type of payment from the United States it is always nice to receive one of them. In this regard, in Alaska we can still receive one of these stimulus checks before the end of the year. While it is true that stimulus checks are the payments sent by the government through the American Rescue Plan, the rest of the extra payments can also be called that.
And this is where each state can dole out as many stimulus checks as it sees fit. Still, it’s true that everything has to be within state budgets. Tax Rebates and Tax Refunds cannot be sent out out of order. Each State has to take into account the budgets it controls before sending this type of checks.
In this case we are talking about the State of Alaska. This state sends during the year 2023 the annual Dividend of the Permanent Fund Dividend. This institution sends during the year 2023 some stimulus checks related to the net income of the state. Each citizen who has access to this payment may receive the check at a different time of the year, depending on their individual situation.
WHEN WILL I BE ABLE TO RECEIVE ALASKA’S STIMULUS CHECK?
There are several factors to consider in order to receive the Alaska stimulus check. The first is to have submitted your application on time. The application process for this check ended last March 31, although we may encounter some exceptions.
Within those exceptions, the Alaska Perm Dividend Perm Fund website itself has said that, “Applicants who submitted an online (web) application and selected direct deposit and have been determined eligible for payment by September 22, 2023, will receive their 2023 dividend via direct deposit on October 5, 2023. Applications (web and paper) that have been determined eligible for payment by October 18, 2023, will receive their dividend on October 26, 2023, via direct deposit or check. Checks will be mailed from Juneau beginning October 26, 2023.”
So, if we have Direct Deposit activated, this payment will arrive much sooner than if we do not have it activated. What is certain is that we will receive the payment in 2023 itself. In the case of not receiving the stimulus check on time, to claim it, it is necessary to speak directly with the Department of Alaska.
