Minnesota residents can expect to receive direct payments of up to $1,300 by the end of September as part of the stimulus update.

A One-Time Tax Rebate Payment for Eligible ​Minnesotans

A one-time tax rebate payment for eligible Minnesotans of up to $1,300 per family is expected to wrap up by the end of​ September, part of⁤ a $2 million rebate ⁢from the state’s multibillion-dollar budget surplus.

In⁣ August, some Minnesota taxpayers began seeing payments ‍in their bank accounts​ based on ⁤Minnesotans’ 2021 income tax returns. Money will be automatically disturbed either by check or direct deposit.

Helping Minnesotans with​ Everyday ‌Expenses

“This rebate will help millions of Minnesotans​ pay for everyday expenses such‌ as groceries, school supplies, rent,⁢ or child care,” Revenue Commissioner Paul ⁢Marquart said. “We know it will be very valuable ‍to a lot of people, and we ‌look forward to sending payments ⁢out in early fall.”

Any Minnesota residents ⁤who lived in the state ‍in 2021 ​and filed an income tax return or property tax refund could qualify for the one-time rebate. The adjusted gross⁤ income limit is $75,000 ‌or less for single filers‍ and $150,000 or less for married couples who filed together. ⁤Single filers‍ will see $260, and married ​couples ⁤will receive $520, with‍ $260 each for up to three dependents,⁢ meaning married⁤ couples ⁣with the‌ maximum number of dependents ‌could see up to $1,300.

There was no application for this rebate payment, and it’s being handled outside​ the typical system in which the state processes tax refunds, so taxpayers ⁤cannot track where their rebate is.⁣ State ⁢officials⁤ encourage those who ‌expect ⁣a‌ payment to contact the department’s customer service operations if the rebate ⁤is ⁢not issued by October.
