How you'll receive your payment

Californians will receive their MCTR payment by direct deposit or debit card.

Generally, direct deposit payments will be made to eligible taxpayers who e-filed their 2020 CA tax return and received their CA tax refund by direct deposit. MCTR debit card payments will be mailed to the remaining eligible taxpayers.

You will receive your payment by mail in the form of a debit card if you:

  • Filed a paper return.
  • Had a balance due.
  • Received your Golden State Stimulus (GSS) payment by check.
  • Received your tax refund by check regardless of filing method.
  • Received your 2020 tax refund by direct deposit, but have since changed your banking institution or bank account number.
  • Received an advance payment from your tax service provider, or paid your tax preparer fees using your tax refund.

When you'll receive your payment

MCTR direct deposit payments for Californians who received GSS I or II are expected to be issued to bank accounts from October 7, 2022 through October 25, 2022. The remaining direct deposits will occur between October 28, 2022 and November 14, 2022.

MCTR debit card payments for Californians who received GSS I and II are expected to be mailed between October 25, 2022 and December 10, 2022. The remaining debit cards will be mailed by January 15, 2023.

Refer to the tables below for the latest updates to the payment schedules.
