Eligible Alaskans will receive $1,100 in this year’s Permanent Fund dividends when they’re distributed in October, confirming the amount at which they were capped by state lawmakers in July.
The state’s Permanent Fund website officially listed the amount Friday, a stark departure from previous announcements which have typically been made by Gov. Bill Walker and his predecessors.
