The program, approved in the fiscal 2023 budget as one of many tax relief programs stemming from the state’s $900 million surplus, is expected to help 115,000 families. Residents with children and who earn up to $100,000, or $200,000 for joint filers, will automatically receive the checks through the R.I. Division of Taxation.
