Tuesday the deadline to file for 2015 PFD

Paper applications need to be postmarked Tuesday, and online applications submitted by midnight Tuesday.

KDLG:  Applications for the 2015 PFD need to be submitted by Tuesday.

Anna Mae Sorenson, and the Dillingham Legislative Information Office, said staff can help residents get applications submitted both electronically and by mail.

"And, if someone in your family passed away after June 30, 2014, the estate representative can file a PFD application on behalf of the deceased. We have the correct form available to do that," she said.

Paper applications need to be postmarked by Tuesday, so residents are encouraged to get to the Post Office before it closes. Online applications can be submitted up till midnight, but the state encourages those filers to leave time for internet connection issues, etc.

The amount of this year’s check will be based on the five year average of the Permanent Fund’s statutory net income. Last year’s $1884 was the highest payout since 2008.
