Alaska residents have just days left to apply for the 2026 Alaska Permanent Fund Dividend (PFD), with the application deadline set for March 31.
The PFD program provides annual payments to eligible Alaskans from the state’s oil revenue fund, making it one of the most widely accessed financial benefits in the state.
Officials remind residents that each individual must submit a separate application, including children, and that applications can be completed online through the state’s MyAlaska system.
Applicants who are unable to sign electronically can still file online and submit a signed form by mail. Paper applications are also available at designated distribution centers across Alaska.
According to the Alaska Department of Revenue, applications submitted or postmarked after March 31 will be denied as late filings.
The annual dividend remains a key source of income for many residents, with eligibility tied to residency requirements and other criteria set by the state.
