Treasury to release tax refund checks tomorrow

Batch #4 of tax refund checks will be released tomorrow.

The checks in this one are for those who filed their taxes from January 29 to February 1st, according to an announcement by Treasurer Malemo Tausaga.

The total value of checks in tomorrow’s batch is $904,962: $354,278 are locally paid refunds and $550,684 are Additional Child Tax Credit refunds from the US Treasury. A total of 432 taxpayers are included.

Treasury reminds those picking up checks from the Disbursing Office that face masks are mandatory and social distancing is enforced.

Check with the Tax Office if you were expecting a check and don’t receive it. It will be the fourth consecutive Friday that tax refund checks are issued.

Since the release of tax refund checks in January many report having to go the to the Tax Office because they didn’t get their checks. The common reasons are their checks were wrongly sent to another mailbox, there are questions with their immigration status and also dependents.
