The deadline for this tax rebate is approaching so check if you can apply and the possible amounts. Stimulus check payments are almost over for millions of Americans, but you could claim a Recovery Rebate Credit for 2020 till May 17, 20,24, and for 2021 through April 15, 2025.
So, if you have already enjoyed your stimulus check money, it is time to look for other payments to help you out. The Pennsylvania Department of Revenue has offered the possibility to apply for the Property Tax/Rent Rebate Program.
NO STIMULUS CHECK? APPLY FOR THIS TAX REBATE IN PENNSYLVANIA
This Tax/Rent Rebate Program in Pennsylvania supports both renters and homeowners. Although the tax rebate amount ranges from $380 to $1,000, supplemental rebates can be worth 500 dollars extra.
That means that if you qualify for $1,000, you could get $1,500 if you are eligible for the supplement. So, it is a fantastic amount if compared to a stimulus check payment from the government.
Supplemental Rebates can be much lower and some eligible recipients may just get $190 extra. Even if the minimum tax rebate is worth $380, it is still quite a lot of money.
WHEN IS THE DEADLINE TO FILE FOR THIS TAX REBATE THAT IS HIGHER THAN A STIMULUS CHECK?
The Pennsylvania Department of Revenue claims that the deadline to file will be on June 30, 2024. If you would like to apply for this tax rebate now, you can do it online or in person, as you prefer it.
The key eligibility requirements are being 65 years old or older. People with a disability who are 18 years old at least may also receive it. What is more, widowers and widows who are at least 50 years old could also get it.
Apart from age, disability or marriage status, income criteria is also important. Just like for the stimulus check payments. Make sure your earnings are less than $45,000 or simply $45,000 per year.
