Virginians will receive a tax rebate of up to $400 during election week.
Virginia Tax Rebates Arrive Just in Time for Election Week
Residents of Virginia are eagerly awaiting their anticipated tax rebates, which are currently being mailed out during this crucial election week. These rebates offer the opportunity for residents to receive up to $400 in checks, with the mailing process commencing on October 25. The state budget, signed into law by Governor Glenn Youngkin (R-VA) in September, paved the way for this one-time rebate.

Accompanying these checks are letters that explain the reason for their issuance: ”You are receiving this rebate because Governor Glenn Youngkin recently signed a bill passed by the 2023 Virginia General Assembly.” This serves as a reminder that all 140 seats in the General Assembly will be up for election on November 7. While Republicans currently hold control over the House of Delegates and the governor’s mansion, they are aiming to secure the state Senate in the upcoming election.
Virginia House Democratic Leader Don Scott expressed skepticism about the timing of these rebates, stating, “Am I supposed to be surprised that these checks are coming out the week before the election? Virginians won’t be fooled by this, just like they were not fooled when Donald Trump sent out checks before his losing election.”
To date, there has been no response from Governor Youngkin’s office regarding the matter, despite the Washington Examiner’s request for comment.
It is worth noting that the state extended the tax filing deadline by six months, allowing Virginians until November 1 to submit their taxes. As a result, the majority of rebate checks are expected to be delivered prior to Election Day.
