Indiana enters the list of states with two tax rebates in 2022. They’re called “Automatic Taxpayer Refunds” in Indiana (or ATRs for short). To qualify for the first ATR, you must file a 2020 Indiana resident tax return by January 3, 2022.
If you are eligible for the first ATR, you also qualify for the second one. However, suppose you don’t qualify for the first payment. In that case, you can still be eligible for the second ATR if you (1) receive Social Security benefits in 2022 and (2) aren’t claimed as dependent on anyone else’s tax return.
All Indiana state tax rebate payments from the state’s budget surplus have been printed and mailed, Indiana State Auditor Tera Klutz said. https://t.co/yBlu8APIi0

Amount: The first rebate amount is $125. The second ATR amount is $200.
When Sent: First-round rebates were sent starting in May 2022. The second ATR wasn’t enacted until August, but payments are expected to be delivered by the end of October.
Flush with cash, states are writing checks to taxpayers.

If you don’t qualify for the first payment but do qualify for the second one, you won’t receive a $200 fee. Instead, you must file a 2022 Indiana tax return and claim the second ATR as a credit.
