Sixteen direct payments worth up to $1,700 remaining to go out to Americans in 2022 – see the exact deadlines

TENS of millions of Americans are still in line to receive direct stimulus payments before the end of the year.

While the federal government has balked at approving another nationwide relief check, more than a dozen states are sending cash in 2022.

Some state lawmakers approved relief packages in the face of record-high inflation.

In addition to rebates and stimulus checks, certain states chose to provide relief by expanding tax credits.

In other states, massive budget surpluses automatically triggered tax refunds for residents.

If you live in one of these locales, here's how much you can expect to get this year, and when to look out for a check.

1. Maine – up to $1,700

Maine has been sending out rebate checks worth $850 per individual and $1,700 for an average family.

The state distributed the majority of payments in June and July.

However, some rebates will take some time to hit mailboxes.  

Governor Janet Mills' office said that checks will continue to go out on a rolling basis through the end of 2022.

To qualify for a rebate check, you must meet a few requirements. 

As far as income goes, an individual must not exceed $100,000, while heads of the household and couples can make up to $150,000 and $200,000, respectively.

These will be based on 2021 tax returns, which must be filed no later than October. 

2. Pennsylvania - $1,658

Direct deposit payments for Pennsylvania's property tax rebate program started going out on July 1.

Beneficiaries of the program include the following:

• 65 years and older
• Widows and widowers age 50 and older
• Disabled and 18 years or older

The maximum standard rebate is $650, but some homeowners may qualify for supplemental rebates of up to $975.

Renters and homeowners who make $8,000 or less will get a $650 rebate.

Those making $8,001 to $15,000 will get $500.

The rest of the rebates per income range is as follows:

• Homeowners making $15,001 to $18,000: $300
• Homeowners making $18,001 to $35,000: $250

In addition, the state announced that everyone who claimed a rebate will also receive an additional check worth 70% of the initial refund amount.

That means anyone who qualified for $975 is now in line to take in $1,657.50 total.

Governor Tom Wolf announced that bonuses would be sent starting August 24 to anyone who already received their rebate.

If you haven’t claimed yet, you can apply online until the end of the year.

3. Colorado – $1,500

While the deadline for Coloradoans to file a return and receive their refunds over the summer has passed, they can still claim the money – but will be in for a longer wait.

Those who filed their taxes by June 30 are in line to get their refund checks in late August.

If you file by the October 17 extended deadline, you can expect to get your money in January.

The rebates are worth $750 for individuals, while the amount for joint filers is $1,500.

Around 3.1million residents are in line to get money, according to Governor Jared Polis.

4. Hawaii - $1,200

Thousands of Hawaii residents are set to get a one-time tax refund that will start going out at the end of this month.

Those making less than $100,000 annually will receive a $300 rebate.

Workers who earn between $100,000 and $200,000 are in line for $100.

According to Hawaii’s Department of Taxation, the refunds are expected to start going out during the last week of August.

Those getting paper checks will need to wait three to four weeks for the money to arrive.

5. California - $1,050

California Governor Gavin Newsom signed the state's budget in June, which included $17billion worth of inflation relief in form of tax rebates. 

Roughly 23million people are in line for payments of $200 to $1,050.

According to California's Franchise Tax Board, payments will be distributed between October 2022 and January 2023.

Eligibility and payment amounts are dependent on income, tax filing status, and household size.

The state has an estimator that can help you determine your eligibility and see how much cash you can expect to receive.

6. Rhode Island - $750

Rhode Island Governor Daniel McKee said families will be able to receive up to $750 in a child tax rebate.

Any Rhode Island taxpayer with dependents 18 or under is eligible for the credit, and no application is necessary.

Taxpayers who file by August 31 will start receiving rebates in October.

For those taking advantage of the October 17 extended filing deadline, rebates will be issued starting in December.

All rebates will be sent by check, and there will be no direct deposits.

7. Connecticut - $750

Connecticut approved child tax credits of $250 per child in a household, with a maximum credit of $750, but families had to apply by July 31.

The following income guidelines had to be met to qualify for the credit:

• Single or married and filing separately: $100,000 or less
• Head of household: $160,000 or less
• Married filing jointly: $200,000 or less

The rebate will be reduced by 10% for every $1,000 a household earned over those thresholds, according to the state.

Any Connecticut parent who claimed at least one child, 18 or younger, on their 2021 taxes can get the child tax credit.

You can find more information on the child tax credit program from the Connecticut Department of Revenue Services.

Governor Ned Lamont said he expects payments to go out in August.

8. Georgia - $500

Governor Brian Kemp signed House Bill 1302, ensuring that the Georgia Department of Revenue will credit residents with a one-time refund after filing their taxes.

Refunds started going out in May and more than 90% of taxpayers have gotten their money.

But, officials have revealed that more payments are going to be sent out by the end of August, according to WSB-TV.

If you’re married or filed with your spouse, you can expect $500.

Heads of households will receive $375, while single filers and couples that filed separately will get $250.

9. New Mexico - $500

By now New Mexico residents should have received their final state-issued relief checks.

New Mexican residents who filed taxes individually got $250 and couples who filed jointly received $500.

Unlike the previous rebate, a resident's income level won't affect the amount of the cash payout.

All payments should have been transferred into residents' bank accounts by direct deposit in the first few days of August.

Anyone expecting a rebate who didn't receive one should contact the state revenue department at 1-866-285-2996.

10. Virginia - $500

The Virginia General Assembly approved a tax rebate for eligible residents.

Virginia residents who filed their taxes before July 1, 2022, are likely to receive their tax rebate during September or October of this year.

A resident's tax liability, which is the amount of taxes owed minus any credits throughout the year, will determine if they receive the one-time payment.

Individual taxpayers will be eligible to get a payment worth up to $250, WJLA reported.

Meanwhile, couples who filed their taxes together can receive a payment, worth up to $500.

All rebates will be sent by October 17, according to WDBJ Roanoke, so all eligible Virginians should receive the cash by October 31.

Residents who think they may qualify for the tax rebate must file their taxes by November 1 if they haven't already, according to the Virginia Department of Taxation.

11. Florida - $450

The Sunshine State sent out checks worth $450 per dependent to the following groups of parents and caregivers:

• Foster parents
• Relative caregivers
• Non-relative caregivers
• Families receiving TANF cash assistance
• Guardianship assistance program participants

Checks should have arrived by August 7, according to the Florida Department of Children and Families.

The payments are part of a program named "Hope Florida - A Pathway to Prosperity."

A spokesperson for the Florida Department of Children and Families (DCF) told News4Jax that anyone experiencing issues depositing or cashing the check can call 833-681-3438 to attempt to resolve the issue.

Any other issues, questions, or concerns about the payment can be directed to the DCF call center at 850-300-4323.

12. Delaware - $300

In April, Delaware lawmakers agreed to send $300 to any residents who filed a tax return in the state in 2020 or 2021.

While the state hoped to send all of them out in May, the Delaware Department of Finance said that many taxpayers have been left out.

As many as 150,000 Delawareans may still be waiting on the $300 rebate, finance secretary Rick Geisenberger told Delaware Public Media.

It would mean that nearly 20% of taxpayers who qualified for the rebate have not yet gotten it.

He added that the department hopes to send another 50,000 to 100,000 checks between August and October.

13. Illinois - $300

Governor JB Pritzker revealed that Illinoisans will receive at least $50 as part of an income tax rebate.

Joint tax filers will receive $100 and families with three dependents can get up to $300.

Single taxpayers will get $50, but must not earn more than $200,000 in order to qualify for the rebate.

The cash is part of the Illinois Family Relief plan, which was approved in April, and payments are expected to be sent starting the week of September 12.

14. Indiana - $250

Millions in the state of Indiana started to receive their rebate payments in May.

The refunds are worth $125 per individual and $250 for married couples.

Approximately 4.3million Hoosiers will receive the $125 payment, about 85 percent of the state's adult population. 

Direct deposits have begun going out and will continue to through the summer, while residents who opted for a paper check can expect those to arrive in August.

Any taxpayer who filed their 2020 taxes before January 3, 2022, qualifies for the cash.

Hoosiers may also be in line for an additional $200 thanks to a new rebate plan.

15. Idaho - $75

Earlier this year, Idaho approved a bill allocating $350million for tax rebates.

To qualify, you must be considered a full-time resident and have filed tax returns for 2020 and 2021.

Additionally, full-time Idaho residents must have filed grocery-credit refund returns.

The rebates began going out in March and will provide $75 or 12 percent of your 2020 Idaho state taxes.

Anyone who hasn't filed a tax return must do so by December 31 to claim the cash.

Idaho residents can check the status of their rebate here.

16. Missouri - amounts vary

Drivers in Missouri can claim gas refunds based on what they spent at the pump between October 1, 2021, and June 30, 2022.

Those seeking a gas rebate in the state must file an application with the Missouri Department of Revenue (DOR) by September 30. 

You’ll need to have your vehicle identification number and include the total gasoline gallons for each vehicle during the eligible period. 

Ideally, you’ll want to have your receipts from prior gas station visits on hand. 

All cars that weigh 26,000 pounds or less are eligible for a refund.

The Sun also explained how you can find out if you're owed stimulus money.

Plus, frontline workers in Minnesota are in line for cash this year, but the state has yet to determine the payment amount.
