Is the Government Holding Money for You? Check These June 2025 Payouts

Every year, billions of dollars in benefits go unclaimed—not because people don’t qualify, but because they don’t know they do.

June 2025 is no exception, with multiple government-backed payments hitting mailboxes and bank accounts across the country.

If you live in Alaska, California, or Pennsylvania, there may be unclaimed stimulus money with your name on it.

Here’s how to find out what’s available, who qualifies, and how to claim it before time runs out.

 

Alaska: $1,702 Dividend Checks Drop June 18

Residents of Alaska who applied for the Permanent Fund Dividend (PFD) in 2024 (or earlier) may be owed a $1,702 payment this month.

If your application is marked “Eligible – Not Paid” by June 11, your money is coming on June 18.

Important note: Getting a non-Alaska REAL ID could disqualify you from future payments.

Sacramento: $725/Month Guaranteed Income Starts June 15

In Sacramento County, California, a guaranteed income program is launching that will deliver $725 per month for one year to 200 families.

Who’s eligible:

  • Families with children under 6

  • Income at or below 200% of the federal poverty level

  • Residents of select ZIP codes

Perks: No work requirement. No repayment. And the payments won’t interfere with Medi-Cal, CalWORKs, or CalFresh. Participants also receive free financial counseling, webinars, and access to community resources.

If you applied before April 27 and haven’t checked your status—do it now. You may be one of the randomly selected families with money already coming your way.

 

Pennsylvania: Up to $1,000 in Rent and Property Tax Rebates

If you paid rent or property taxes in Pennsylvania during 2024, you could qualify for a rebate of up to $1,000. This program is aimed at:

  • Residents age 65 or older

  • Widows and widowers 50+

  • Disabled individuals 18+

  • With income under $46,520 (Social Security excluded)

How much can you get?

  • Up to $1,000 for incomes under $8,270

  • Up to $770 or less for incomes up to $46,520

  • Additional bonuses of up to $500 for residents of Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, and Scranton

Deadline to apply: June 30, 2025

What you need: Proof of income, rent or property tax documents, and a completed application form.

 

Bottom Line: If You Don’t Ask, You Don’t Get

Between forgotten applications, eligibility confusion, and missed announcements, millions in government stimulus go unclaimed every year. Don’t leave money on the table.

If you think you might qualify for any of these programs:

  • Double-check your eligibility

  • Gather your paperwork

  • Apply before the deadlines

This isn’t a handout—it’s help that’s already been budgeted for people just like you. You have to claim it.
