There have been or will be payments made to provide relief from inflation by other states. Continue reading to find out which states are handing money back, how much-qualified taxpayers may anticipate getting back, and when the money should come.
California
Checks to help alleviate the effects of inflation will be sent to millions of residents of California; married couples with children may get as much as $1,050.
The payouts, which are coming out of California’s $97 billion budget surplus, are going out as direct deposits or debit cards, with the first payments going out as soon as October.
The amount that each resident will get is determined by factors such as their household size, tax filing status, and income.
Taxpayers who file individually and make less than $75,000 annually or couples who file jointly and make less than $150,000 annually are eligible to receive a credit of $350 per taxpayer, plus an additional $350 if they have any dependents.
As a result, a married couple that also has children might potentially receive up to $1,050.
Individuals who file their taxes as individuals and make between $75,000 and $125,000 per year, as well as married couples who make between $150,000 and $250,000, are eligible to get a tax credit of $250 per taxpayer, plus an additional $250 if they have any dependents. Therefore, a family consisting of children would be eligible for a total of $750.
Those who file as individuals and earn between $125,000 and $250,000 annually and married couples who earn between $250,000 and $500,000 annually would each receive $200. In this category, a family with children would be eligible for a maximum payment of $600.
Individual taxpayers with incomes of $250,000 or more and married taxpayers with incomes totalling $500,000 or more are ineligible for the benefits.
Colorado
Residents of the state who have filed their tax return for the year 2021 before the due date of June 30 will receive a $750 check by September 30, thanks to the Taxpayer’s Bill of Rights (TABOR) Amendment of 1992. Joint filers will receive a $1,500 payment.
In May, Governor Jared Polis approved a bill that would expedite the process of providing refunds to taxpayers. Many of these refunds are anticipated to be distributed during the second week of August.
It gives me great pleasure to report that the checks have been mailed out. The statement was made by Polis, a Democrat, on KKTV on August 8th.
Those who requested an extension and met the new deadline of October 17 will get their refund by January 31, 2023, at the very latest.
Delaware
In April, Governor John Carney signed a measure that approved the Delaware Relief Rebate Program. Under this program, residents of the state who have submitted their tax returns for the year 2020 will get a $300 stimulus check.
Even If you filed your taxes as a married couple, both of you should be eligible for the payment that began being distributed in May.
Florida
The Republican governor of Florida, Ron DeSantis, announced that over 60,000 families in the state were given one-time payments of $450 per child “to mitigate the costs of growing inflation, especially with the impending new school year.”
To be eligible, families must be receiving Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (commonly known as welfare), be a related or non-relative caregiver, or participate in the Guardianship Assistance Program. Additionally, families must be foster parents.
There is no need to submit an application for the benefit because it will be sent in the mail directly to those who are qualified.
According to the Florida Department of Children and Families, checks should have arrived in time for Florida’s “return to school” sales-tax holiday, which was scheduled from July 25 to August 7.
Georgia
In March, Gov. Brian Kemp signed a bill that authorized taxpayers to receive reimbursements if they filed their state taxes for both the year 2020 and the year 2021.
In May, taxpayers reporting as single received $250, taxpayers filing as heads of the household received $375, and married couples filing jointly received $500.
It’s possible that persons who are only residents for part of the year, don’t pay much or any income tax, or are behind on their taxes, child support, or other obligations got a lesser rebate.
The Department of Revenue began delivering rebates in May, and according to its website, the majority of residents who submitted their 2021 state return by April 18 should receive theirs by the beginning of August.
The State Capitol Building in Hawaii
Beginning at the beginning of September, $300 tax refund checks should begin to be mailed out to qualifying residents of Hawaii.
This year, residents who earned less than $100,000 in 2021 — or $200,000 if they filed jointly — will be entitled to get a tax rebate of $300, and any dependents they claim will also be eligible for the reimbursement. If your family of four is eligible, you might earn $1,200.
A one-time payment of $100 will be made to individuals who earned more than $100,000 and couples who earned more than $200,000 in combined income.
On the Act 115 Refund page of the Hawaii Department of Taxation’s website, it is stated that the state will begin issuing payouts during the first week of September.
Idaho
In February, Governor Brad Little signed a law that will give $75 to each taxpayer and dependent, or 12% of their state income tax return for 2020, whichever is greater. This will take effect in 2020.
The sending of checks began in March. The residents can check the status of their rebates online at any time.
Illinois
The Illinois relief package, which began to take effect on July 1 and is projected to have cost approximately $1.83 billion, includes temporary reductions in many sales taxes as well as income and property tax rebates.
A tax rebate of $50 will be issued to individuals with incomes of less than $200,000 in 2021, while a rebate of $100 will be issued to married couples filing jointly with incomes of less than $400,000 in that same year.
In addition, people who file their taxes in 2021 are eligible for a bonus payment of up to three hundred dollars for each dependant they listed on their return. An income of up to $400 per month is possible for a family of five members.
Comptroller Susanna Mendoza anticipates beginning the process of cutting checks during the week of September 12, according to an email sent to CNET from the Illinois Department of Revenue. Distribution is expected to be completed approximately eight weeks after the initial start date.
In addition, Democratic Governor J.B. Pritzker’s Family Relief Plan includes several tax holidays and rebates.
One of these is a temporary suspension of the state’s sales tax on groceries beginning July 1, 2022, and continuing through June 30, 2023.
Another is a permanent expansion of the earned income credit from 18% to 20% of the federal credit.

Indiana state flag
Due to a lack of paper, residents of Indiana who were expecting to receive their tax refunds in the form of checks in the mail won’t get them until August.
Indiana
Because Indiana has a provision that provides for automatic taxpayer refunds, residents of the state are qualified for rebates of $125 regardless of their income.
May saw the beginning of payments being sent by direct deposit. According to Governor Eric Holcomb’s comments to Fox 59, printed checks were supposed to be delivered in July but won’t do so until August “because the paper supply required was delayed,”
Even though the paper checks were late, the Indiana legislature went ahead and approved a second set of payments totalling $200 for each individual taxpayer.
On one paper check, the total amount of $325 for each person, or $650 for married couples filing jointly, will be included.
There is currently no timetable in place for the delivery of the additional payments that will be sent by direct deposit.
