1312 Stimulus Payment Eligibility: $1300 stimulus payments will be given to Alaskans, providing much-needed financial support in the face of global economic challenges. This payment is a component of the state’s Permanent Fund Dividend (PFD) policy, which aims to give citizens continuous financial advantages.
The $1300 total payment comprises two instalments: a $300 down payment and the remaining $1000 from Alaska’s oil earnings. Alaska sets itself apart from other governments with this strategy because it gives money to its citizens directly.

A distinctive aspect of Alaska’s economy is the Permanent Fund Dividend program, which was started in 1976 to guarantee that the state’s natural gas and oil profits benefit all Alaskans.
The program, which is run by the Alaska Permanent Fund Corporation, gives participants yearly cash payouts in addition to acting as a savings account. The PFD serves as a type of universal basic income, providing a steady cash boost in contrast to the transitory federal stimulus handouts.
Alaskans must have continued to reside in the state for the whole previous calendar year to be eligible for the $1300 stimulus payout. The deadline for submitting applications for the dividend was March 31st of this year.
For those who met all eligibility requirements and applied by the deadline, checks will be given starting on August 15.
Jerry Perkins, an Anchorage resident, responded to the increased predicted PFD amount by saying that he believes anything above $1,700 is excessive and should have been closer to $1,200.

But will I refuse it, you know? I will not decline it, I promise. Can I cash the check now? “Sure, I’ll cash the check,” Perkins declared.
Sam Bair, an Anchorage resident, believes that the $1,700 sum is appropriate and will help with bill payment.
“Well, the problem with the PFD is that it’s needed because it’s so hard to live. I mean, I gotta tell you, like I’m paying rent a couple days late today, and I’ve got two jobs, and I shouldn’t have that problem since I go to work every day,” Bair said.
