This year’s PFDs will start hitting bank accounts on Sept. 20, Gov. Mike Dunleavy announced today. The roughly $3,200-per-person payout includes a $650 payment meant to offset high energy costs.
PFDs are scheduled to arrive a few weeks earlier than usual. Last year, PFDs went out in mid-October.
The oil-wealth checks were expedited in 2020 and distributed July 1 because of the economic impact of the pandemic. In 2017, 2018 and 2019, the payments went out during the first few days of October.
