Californians who have been waiting for up to $1,050 stimulus checks from escalating prices can anticipate the next installment by the end of the month.
More state Middle-Class will begin distribution in December. About $9.5 billion will be distributed to Californians in the form of direct payments.
California Relief Payments Schedule
Depending on your preference, you may receive a direct deposit to your bank account or a prepaid debit card in the mail.
Moreover, the state initially began issuing the payouts in October, but some recipients have yet to receive their checks or debit cards. Those with last names starting with N through V, however, have been promised by authorities that they will receive their payments before the end of the year.
The deadline for sending any outstanding payments is January 31st. By the 15th of October 2021, all residents must have filed their 2020 tax forms, and they may not claim any dependents. Also, your annual income and marital status will determine your payment amount.
Depending on their income and the number of people who depend on them, married couples who file taxes together could get anywhere from $400 to $1,050. Heads of household, on the other hand, could get anywhere from $200 to $700.

Who Will Receive California’s Stimulus Checks?
This year, a Middle-Class Tax Refund will be given to millions of California residents, but not everyone will be so lucky. You can only get California stimulus checks if one of the following is positive:
- Filed a California income tax return for the year 2020 by October 15, 2021
- On your California tax return for 2020, you must have reported an adjusted gross income of $250,000 or less if you were single or a married person filing a separate tax return, or $500,000 or less if you were anyone else.
- No one claimed you as a dependent on their tax return for 2020.
- In 2020, you lived in California for at least six months.
- Are living in California on the day your payment is sent.
Additionally, the California Franchise Tax Board (FTB) has a helpful online tool that lets you find out if you are eligible and get an estimate of how much you will get from your stimulus payment.
