STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. \u2014 Gov. Kathy Hochul\u2019s inflation refund check is en route to your mailbox. <\/p>\n
Yes, that\u2019s right: Hochul is refunding eight million New York taxpayers some money to combat inflationary prices. <\/p>\n
\u201cWhile inflation has driven prices higher, sapping the income of New Yorkers, it has also driven sharp increases in the state\u2019s collection of sales tax. Governor Hochul believes that money belongs to hardworking New York families and should be returned to their pockets as an inflation refund,\u201d a written statement explained in April<\/a>.<\/p>\n As a result, the following taxpayers will receive a check of a varying amount depending on their filing status and income:<\/p>\n Joint tax filers:Income up to $150,000: $400 checkIncome over $150,000 but no more than $300,000: $300 checkSingle tax filers:Income up to $75,000: $200 checkIncome over $75,000 but no more than $150,000: $150 check<\/p>\n \u201cThe cost of living is still too damn high, so I promised to put more money in your pockets \u2013 and we got it done,\u201d Hochul said<\/a> in May. \u201c\u2026When I said your family is my fight, I mean it \u2013 and I\u2019ll never stop fighting for you.\u201d<\/p>\n No action is necessary to receive the check, as it will be delivered to the address listed on your most recent tax return. All you need to do is keep an eye on your mailbox this fall, with the checks set to be mailed over a period of several weeks beginning in mid-October.<\/p>\n For more information, New Yorkers can visit ny.gov\/inflationrefund.<\/a><\/p>\n If you purchase a product or register for an account through a link on our site, we may receive compensation.
