Stimulus update: Direct payment of ,312 to be sent to some Alaskans in seven days

The amount the Per­ma­nent Fund Div­i­dend pro­gram offers res­i­dents varies by year and is deter­mined by Alaska’s annu­al min­er­al rev­enues for that year. In 2023, the check was worth $1,312 and began going out to eli­gi­ble res­i­dents in Octo­ber.
