Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Wolf Sends Property Tax, Rent Rebates Out Early In Effort To Help Residents
PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- In an effort to help people in the commonwealth, Gov. Tom Wolf says property tax and rent rebates were sent out early. Wolf says he worked with state offices to get 310,000 rebates in the hands of Pennsylvanians by Wednesday.
July 1 is typically the earliest date for rebates to be issued.
The governor says he hopes they provide some financial support for people affected by the pandemic.
Claims will be processed on a first-in-first-out basis which means some people will receive their rebates earlier than others.
It's free to apply for a rebate and there is free assistance available at locations across the state for those who need help with their application forms.
