Help More North Carolinians Receive $335 in COVID-19 Relief

Most North Carolina families with children received a $335 coronavirus relief payment last fall to help with virtual schooling and childcare costs. Eligible families who did not receive the $335 check have another chance to apply through July 1, 2021.

The $335 payments are for individuals with a dependent child who was 16 or younger at the end of 2019.

If you did not file a 2019 state return because your gross income for 2019 did not exceed the state’s filing requirements for your filing status (generally $10,000 per year if you are single and $20,000 per year if you are married), you may still be eligible for the $335 payment if you apply by May 31. If you have already received the $335 grant, you are not eligible under the new law. 

Go the North Carolina Department of Revenue website at NCDOR.gov for details and to apply.
