Using budget surpluses generated from post-pandemic recoveries and federal COVID-relief funds, 20 states are sending (or have sent) rebate checks or other relief payments to their residents in 2022. Some of those state stimulus payments are still being paid in December.

Amount: From $200 to $1,050, depending on your income, filing status, and whether you have dependents. The California Franchise Tax Board has an online tool (opens in new tab) that gives you an estimate of your payment amount. When Sent: If you received a Golden State Stimulus (GSS) payment last year or early this year by direct deposit, you'll receive your California Middle Class Tax Refund payment from October 7 to October 25, 2022 (again, via direct deposit). Additional direct deposit payments to others were sent from October 28 to November 14 (approximately 90% of all direct deposits should be issued in October 2022). For people who received a GSS payment by debit card (e.g., California didn't have your bank account information), the state will mail Middle Class Tax Refund debit cards between October 24 and December 10, 2022. If you didn't previously receive a GSS debit card but are slated to receive a debit card for your California stimulus payment, expect your payment to be in the mail between December 5 and 31, 2022. People scheduled to receive a debit card for their stimulus payment because they changed their bank or bank account since filing a 2020 California income tax return will be issued a debit card between December 17, 2022, and January 14, 2023. The FTB hopes to have 95% of all refund payments in residents' hands by December 31, 2022. For California taxes in general, see the California State Tax Guide.

However, you can not receive more than the tax you paid on your 2020 return. When Sent: The first refund checks were sent in May 2022. The Georgia DOR expected to have most payments sent by August. However, your payment won't be sent until you file your 2021 Georgia tax return. So, if you haven't file for the 2021 tax year yet, your payment will be delayed. For Georgia taxes in general, see the Georgia State Tax Guide. 5 States With No State Sales Tax HawaiiWho's Eligible: Tax refund checks will go to residents who file a 2021 Hawaii income tax return by December 31, 2022 (you must be a Hawaii resident for at least nine months). However, you don't qualify if you (1) can be claimed as a dependent on another person's federal or Hawaii tax return, or (2) are a convicted felon in prison, or (3) were convicted of a misdemeanor and were jailed for all of 2021. Amount: The tax refund will be either $100 or $300 per family member, depending on your 2021 tax year filing status and federal adjusted gross income. Married couples with a federal AGI under $200,000 and other filers with AGI under $100,000 qualify for the $300 amount. When Sent: The state started sending payments in early September. If you're slated to receive a paper check instead of a direct deposit payment, you should have received your payment in the mail by the end of October (subject to post office delays). If you had a 2021 Hawaii tax refund directly deposited into your bank account, then your additional tax refund will be deposited into the same account. If you received a refund by paper check or had to pay taxes with your 2021 Hawaii return, the state will mail you a paper check. Some refunds were withheld because additional information is needed. Those refunds will be sent when the necessary information is received and has been verified or corrected. In addition, if you didn't receive a payment and your current address is different than what was stated on your 2021 Hawaii tax return, you can send an email to [email protected] for information on how to receive your payment. For Hawaii taxes in general, see the Hawaii State Tax Guide. IdahoWho's Eligible: Idaho is actually paying out two tax rebates this year. Full-year residents who file 2020 and 2021 Idaho income tax returns by the end of 2022 qualify for the payments. If you aren't required to file Idaho returns for those years but submitted a grocery credit refund form, then that counts, too. Amount: The amount of the first tax rebate of the year is the greater of (1) $75 per family member (i.e., taxpayer and each dependent), or (2) 12% of the tax liability before credits, "other" taxes, payments, and donations on your 2020 Idaho return. The second rebate (a.k.a., the "Special Session Rebate") is equal to the greater of (1) $600 for married couples filing a joint return or $300 for all other filers, or (2) 10% of the tax liability before credits, "other" taxes, payments, and donations on your 2020 Idaho return. When Sent: The state started sending the first round of rebates in March 2022 – most payments have already been sent. They began sending second-round payments in late September. Idaho is sending them to eligible residents according to the date their 2021 tax return was received. Direct deposit payments will be sent first, followed by paper checks. Rebate payments will be processed through 2022 and into 2023 as residents file the necessary tax returns. The Idaho Tax Commission has an online tool (opens in new tab) that you can use to track your rebate payments. For Idaho taxes in general, see the Idaho State Tax Guide. IllinoisWho's Eligible: Illinois is another state offering two tax rebates this year – one for income taxes and one for property taxes. You qualify for the income tax rebate if you were an Illinois resident in 2021 and the adjusted gross income on your 2021 Illinois tax return is under $200,000 (under $400,000 for joint filers). To qualify for the property tax rebate, you must be an Illinois resident who paid Illinois property taxes in 2021 on your primary residence in 2020, and the adjusted gross income on your 2021 Illinois tax return must be $250,000 or less ($500,000 or less for joint filers). Amount: The amount of the income tax rebate depends on your filing status and the number of dependents claimed on your 2021 Illinois tax return. Each qualifying resident gets $50 ($100 for married couples who filed a joint return), plus $100 per dependent for up to three dependents. The property tax rebate is equal to the property tax credit claimed on your 2021 Illinois tax return, but not more than $300. When Sent: The state started sending rebate payments in September. However, it's expected to take several months before all payments are delivered. The Illinois Department of Revenue has an online tool (opens in new tab) for tracking your rebates. For Illinois taxes in general, see the Illinois State Tax Guide. IndianaWho's Eligible: Indiana joins the list of states with two tax rebates in 2022. They're called "Automatic Taxpayer Refunds" in Indiana (or ATRs for short). To qualify for the first ATR, you had to file a 2020 Indiana resident tax return by January 3, 2022. If you qualify for the first ATR, you also qualify for the second one, too. However, if you don't qualify for the first payment, you can still qualify for the second ATR if you (1) receive Social Security benefits in 2022, (2) aren't claimed as a dependent on anyone else's tax return, and (3) file a 2002 Indiana resident income tax return for 2022 by January 1, 2024. Amount: The first rebate amount is $125. The second ATR amount is $200. When Sent: First-round rebates were sent starting in May 2022. The second ATR wasn't enacted until August, but most payments were delivered by the end of October. If you don't qualify for the first payment, but do qualify for the second one, you won't receive a $200 payment. Instead, you have to file a 2022 Indiana tax return and claim the second ATR as a credit. For Indiana taxes in general, see the Indiana State Tax Guide.

Note that the original filing deadline was October 17, 2022. However, it was pushed back to February 15 to give South Carolinians impacted by Hurricane Ian more time to file. Amount: The rebate amount will be based on your 2021 South Carolina income tax liability, minus credits. However, there is an $800 cap on the rebate amount. When Sent: Because of Hurricane Ian, South Carolina will issue rebates in two phases, depending on the date your 2021 South Carolina tax return is filed. Rebates have been issued for people who filed a return by October 17, 2022. For those who file after October 17 but before February 15, 2023, a rebate check will be issued by March 31, 2023.
