The deadline to file for the PFD stimulus checks will be March 31, 2024. So there is plenty of time to apply. However, the earlier you apply, the faster you may receive your payment if eligible.
WHEN CAN THE FIRST PFD STIMULUS CHECKS ARRIVE?
According to PFD Alaska, it will depend if your application is online or not. if you request direct deposit online and are eligible, you may receive your payment in early October. But what if you request a check online?
If you submitted your application online, but you would like to receive a paper check instead, you will have to wait till the end of October 2024. Paper applications will also take longer for beneficiaries to cash their payments.
Stimulus checks will arrive at the end of October if you are eligible and you send a paper application. That is why it is so important to file online. It can make a big difference if you are on a shoestring budget.
Applicants will need to use their myAlaska username to file for these stimulus checks online. Update your address if you have moved to a new house. Double-check your application before submitting it. If it is not complete, it may take longer to process because they must review it.
WHO CAN QUALIFY FOR THE PFD PAYMENT IN ALASKA?
Being a resident of Alaska for the whole 2023 calendar year is a must. What is more, you must be willing to continue living in this State indefinitely. Those who have claimed residency elsewhere or got benefits because of this reason do not qualify for these stimulus checks.
Only allowable absence may be permitted and if you were in jail you may not be eligible either. Harris County, in Texas, is offering the possibility to get monthly payments worth 500 dollars for 18 months.
Almost 2,000 participants will take advantage of these stimulus checks. Visit the website for this Guaranteed Income Program at the following link https://uplift.harriscountytx.gov/.
