If you haven\u2019t received your New York inflation refund check, keep watching your mail.<\/p>\n
The state began sending out the checks<\/a> to over 8 million people in September. The Tax Department said then it would take weeks for all of the checks to go out.<\/p>\n The department doesn\u2019t have exact details on when individual checks will be sent. It\u2019s advising New Yorkers to watch their mail for them.<\/p>\n New Yorkers don\u2019t have to do anything to get the checks. No sign-ups, registrations or applications are required.<\/p>\n The state is sending the checks based on information it already had on file from the 2023 tax year.<\/p>\n The state Legislature approved the checks as part of the budget earlier this year. Gov. Kathy Hochul proposed them as a way to help New Yorkers deal with rising prices.<\/p>\n You\u2019ll get a check if you filed form IT-201, the New York State Resident Income Tax Return, for the 2023 tax year, had income within qualifying thresholds and weren\u2019t claimed as a dependent on anyone else\u2019s return.<\/p>\n The check amounts are determined by income and filing status, according to the Tax Department<\/a>. Here\u2019s how they break down:<\/p>\n Single filers: $200 for those with income of $75,000 or less and $150 for those with income of more than $75,000, but not more than $150,000.Married filing jointly: $400 for those with income of $150,000 or less and $300 for those with income of more than $150,000, but not more than $300,000.Married filing separately: $200 for those with income of $75,000 or less and $150 for those with income of more than $75,000, but not more than $150,000.Head of household: $200 for those with income of $75,000 or less and $150 for those with income of more than $75,000, but not more than $150,000.Qualifying surviving spouse: $400 for those with income of $150,000 or less and $300 for those with income of more than $150,000, but not more than $300,000.<\/p>\n Scammers have been targeting New Yorkers using the checks as an avenue to get sensitive information<\/a>. The checks aren\u2019t subject to state taxes, but should be reported on federal returns<\/a>.<\/p>\n If you purchase a product or register for an account through a link on our site, we may receive compensation.
