Hawaii residents who have filed their 2021 tax returns only need to wait a bit longer before they receive a payment worth up to $300 from the state.
The paper checks for Hawaii residents are scheduled to go out the week of Oct. 17, said the state’s Department of Taxation. The mailing of the payments had been delayed due to supply chain issues with paper stock needed for the paper checks, according to Hawaii News Now.
The amount of the refund that recipients will receive will range from $100 to $300, depending on the recipient’s filing status. For example, single filers who make less than $100,000 a year will be given $300 in their payment, while single filers who make over $100,000 will only get $100, according to the state’s Department of Taxation.

In order to qualify for this payment, a Hawaii resident must have filed his or her 2021 individual income tax return by Dec. 31 and must also have been a resident of Hawaii for at least nine months. This payment will not be available for people who have claimed or are eligible to be claimed as a dependent by another taxpayer for federal or Hawaii individual income tax purposes, have been convicted of a felony, or have been committed to prison for the full 2021 tax year.
A person who claimed a refund on their 2021 individual income tax return and requested an electronic direct deposit will have this payment deposited into the same bank account. People who requested a paper check refund and did not owe any additional taxes will also be given a paper check.
As of Monday, the department had issued a total of 282,887 direct deposits and 6,162 paper checks. A total of $161,183,700 has been issued in this payment.
