Beginning today, Friday, October 7, $9.5 billion in middle-class California tax refund payments will begin shipping, with refunds of up to $1,050 benefiting millions of eligible residents under the largest program of its kind in state history.
This reimbursement program to put money back into the pockets of Californians builds on last year's Golden State Stimulus, which distributed $9 billion to California families, and the billions that went to help people pay rent, cover past-due utility bills, and support small businesses.
