Tracking Your Alaska Permanent Fund Dividend Payment: Important Information for Alaskans
Are you an Alaskan resident eagerly awaiting your $1,312 portion of the Permanent Dividend Fund? If you haven’t received your payment yet, don’t worry – you can continue to track it online to stay updated on its status. Here’s all the important information you need to know about how to do that.
The Alaska Permanent Fund Dividend (PFD) is a program that distributes a portion of the state’s oil revenues to its residents annually. For 2024, each Alaskan resident is entitled to receive $1,312 as part of the fund. This initiative aims to provide economic stability and benefit the state’s 730,000 residents.
If you were expecting to receive your payment for the 2023 share of the PFD on June 20 or July 18 but have not yet done so, you can track the status of your application online. Simply visit the myAlaska website and access the myPFD portal to input your information and check on your payment status.
For those who prefer in-person assistance, the PFD offices are open on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Fridays from 10:00-16:00. Please note that they are closed to the public on Wednesdays and Thursdays.
If you have not yet applied for the PFD, you still have time to do so. The deadline for applications is Wednesday, August 7, with the final Eligible-Not Paid payments scheduled to be distributed on August 15, 2024.
It’s important to be aware that the myPFD service will be unavailable on Wednesday, July 24, 2024, for maintenance purposes. During this time, the PFD offices will also be closed to the public. If you have any inquiries, be sure to visit the office on Tuesday, July 23 between 10:00-16:00 or wait until Friday for the next opportunity.
Lastly, remember to stay vigilant against potential scams. myAlaska will never send text messages or emails requesting password changes, as this is a common tactic used by phishers and scammers to obtain sensitive information.
Stay informed and proactive in tracking your PFD payment to ensure you receive your entitled share. Happy tracking!
