Rebate checks are going to be hitting the mailboxes and bank accounts of Illinois residents. Governor JB Pritzker says taxpayers will soon see the checks from the Illinois Family Relief Plan. It will take 8 weeks to issue all the rebate checks to anyone who qualifies and filed a 2021 state income tax return. Comptroller Susana Mendoza says her office will begin to issue checks immediately.
“The first wave of tax rebate checks will be going out from my office to taxpayers beginning September 12th. A total of $1.2 billion will be released over the next six to eight weeks to nearly six million taxpayers. This volume nearly doubles what my office sends out in a single year and getting it all completed as soon as possible is my primary goal.”
Individuals making under $200,000 will receive $50, couples making under $400,000 will receive $100 and families with dependents will get a $100 a dependent up to $300. And those qualifying taxpayers who took a property tax rebate will receive that same amount in another rebate.
