Starting next week, approximately 20 million New Yorkers will receive a one-time $200 energy rebate check aimed at providing relief amid soaring energy costs. These payments are part of the Protecting Our Wallets Energy Rebate (POWER) program, authorized by the state's $1 billion budget passed in May. New York Governor Kathy Hochul announced that 8.2 million households across the state would receive these checks, which range from $100 to $200 based on tax filing status and adjusted gross income (AGI) for the 2024 tax year.
To qualify, residents must meet certain financial thresholds and criteria, such as filing a timely New York State Resident Income Tax Return, being a full-time resident of New York State in 2024, reporting qualifying income for tax year 2024, and not being claimed as a dependent on another taxpayer's return. Once eligible, the New York State Department of Taxation and Finance will automatically issue the checks without requiring any action from the recipients.
The first round of checks is set to be distributed on September 21 and will continue through December.
