Stimulus check update : Even though federal stimulus checks aimed at providing relief during the COVID-19 pandemic were discontinued in 2022, several states continue to distribute refunds and disaster relief payments.
The following is an update on which states can expect stimulus payments in June 2023.
A Californian state
Breathe, the guaranteed income program of Los Angeles County, has been announced. Los Angeles County residents who meet several income and age requirements may be eligible to receive $1,000 monthly payments for two years.
As of Sept. 1, 2023, residents must have been in foster care up until the age of 18 and be at least 21 years old and under 24 years old. The income requirement must be equal to or less than 100% of the median income in the area.
You can apply electronically from June 20 through July 3, and 200 people will be selected.
Massachusetts
Residents who filed their 2021 returns by Oct. 17, 2022, will receive a refund equal to approximately 14% of their state income tax liability for 2021.
Taxpayers in Massachusetts, however, still have until Sept. 15, 2023, to file their tax returns and be eligible for Chapter 62F, which forces the state to return leftover revenue.
The payment should be issued in June if the application was filed in May.
New Jersey
Governor Phil Murphy (D-NJ) enacted the Affordable New Jersey Communities for Homeowners and Renters (ANCHOR) program in June 2022.
Approximately 2 million New Jersey households could qualify for a $1,500 property tax rebate if they applied by Feb. 28. There should be more direct deposits or checks this month for residents who have been receiving them.
Georgia
Residents eligible for a 2023 surplus tax refund have been receiving them from the Georgia Department of Revenue.
According to the department of revenue, Georgia residents could avoid an eight-week payment if they filed tax returns in 2021 and 2022.
The government is issuing rebates of $250 to individuals and $500 to couples with surplus tax funds totaling nearly $1 billion.
