State Did NOT Start $1,114 PFD Direct Deposits On October 11th, A National Holiday

$1,114

Check Is Actually Larger Than Expected

Direct Deposits Were To Start On October 11th and Checks On October 24th. But October 11th Was A Holiday.

And Banks Were Closed. 

The state revealed the exact amount of the PFD checks on September 30th. It was larger that expected: $1,114.

Direct deposits were announced as going out on Monday, October 11th. Paper checks are to be sent out two weeks later.

But banks were closed on October 11th, which was a federal holiday. And on October 11th the Alaska Department of Revenue was backtracking saying they "knew" they would be working with a compressed timeline and had not announced a "specific date in advance."
