Rental Rebates, Monthly Income & Dividends: Up to $1,702 in Direct Payments

From coast to coast, June 2025 is shaping up to be a major month for stimulus payments and economic relief programs.


Whether you're in Alaska, Sacramento, or Pennsylvania, new financial aid opportunities are rolling out to help ease the burden of inflation, rising housing costs, and everyday expenses.

Here’s your complete guide to what’s available—and how to qualify.

 

Alaska PFD: $1,702 Direct Payment Coming June 18

If you're an Alaska resident and applied for the Permanent Fund Dividend (PFD) in 2024 (or earlier), your check is on the way!

Those listed as “Eligible – Not Paid” by June 11 will receive $1,702 on June 18.

  1. Check your status on myPFD
  2. Be cautious—getting a non-Alaska REAL ID may disqualify you from future dividends

This annual payout helps support thousands of Alaskans by sharing oil revenue profits directly with residents.
