Virginia residents who file their 2024 state tax return may receive up to $650 in rebates this year. The payments are part of a 2025 relief package that returns surplus tax revenue to eligible taxpayers.

Who can get the rebate?

If you don’t owe state tax after applying credits, you won’t qualify.

When will the rebates arrive?

Virginia will begin issuing payments in July 2025 . The Department of Taxation will send payments on a rolling basis. If you set up direct deposit when you filed, your rebate will go to your bank account. Otherwise, you’ll receive a paper check by mail.

Most eligible taxpayers will receive their rebates within 4–6 weeks of filing.

Why this matters for Virginians

Lawmakers say the rebate reflects strong state finances and a commitment to returning money to taxpayers. Similar rebates went out in 2022 and 2023, with over 2 million households benefiting.

Governor Glenn Youngkin praised the program as a way to help families with everyday expenses.

“These rebates are putting real money back into Virginians’ pockets when they need it most,” he said.

What to do next

If you haven’t filed your 2024 return, submit it before the November 1 deadline to qualify. Early filers will receive their payments sooner.
