Tax Return
June 21, 2019During the 2019 General Assembly Session, the Republican-led General Assembly was able to set aside nearly $450 million for a Taxpayer Relief Fund to give money back to hard-working families this October.
In order to qualify, returns must be filed before July 1st, and the taxpayer can’t owe any back taxes to their local government, Virginia, the IRS, or any other state agency. For those who do, the money will go to settle those debts.
If you’ve already filed your taxes, you’re eligible for a refund of up to $110 for those filing individually and $220 for those filing as a couple.
Rebates won’t exceed a taxpayer’s total tax liability. For example, if your Virginia income tax liability was only $50, your check would likely be $50 instead of the full $110 or $220.
If you’ve already filed your state tax return you are qualified! If you haven’t, hurry! The filing deadline is in less than two weeks.
Here are some other tips to ensure your return is processed smoothly:
- make sure your name, address and Social Security number are correct on your return;
- file electronically; and include your Virginia driver’s license or Virginia identification card number on your return. Go to the Department of Taxation website for more information.
