Delaware: Delaware is sending $300 to tax payers who filed a 2020 state return.

Georgia: Georgia will being giving up to $250 to single filers, $375 to head-of-household filers and $500 to coupes who are married and filing jointly.
Hawaii: Details aren’t available yet on distribution, but Hawaii taxpayers earning more than $100,000 will get a rebate of $100, and those earning less will get $300.
Idaho: Idaho residents who either filed tax returns in 2020 and 2021 or who filed grocery-credit refund returns will get either $75 or 12% of their 2020 Idaho taxes, whichever is greater.

Massachusetts: The Bay State is planning on sending $250 rebates to taxpayers, with more details coming this fall.
Minnesota: Minnesota is sending $750 to frontline workers — those who worked at least 120 hours in Minnesota between March 2020 and June 2021 and could not work remotely. Applications for the payments have closed.
New Jersey: The Garden State is sending $500 to many families.
New Mexico: Taxpayers earning less than $75,000 annually will get a $250 rebate ($500 for joint filers). There is another rebate for all taxpayers, with single filers getting $500 and joint filers getting $100,000
Oregon: Oregonians who were eligible for the earned income tax credit in 2020 will get a one-time $600 payment.
South Carolina: There are no details yet, but Palmetto State residents could get a payment of up to $800.
Virginia: Taxpayers who are eligible should get a payment of $250 ($500 for couples filing jointly).
Will More States Follow?
It’s entirely possible that more states will soon pass stimulus payments for their citizens. Kentucky, North Carolina and Pennsylvania all have potential bills working their way through state houses.
Bottom Line
While a fourth stimulus check is unlikely to be coming from the federal government, a number of states have already passed laws to give more relief to their residents, and more could come in the future.
