Subsistence household relief checks for the 2020–21 Statewide Salmon program were mailed on Friday, January 16th.

All applications submitted by the September 24, 2024 deadline have either been processed for payment or, if issues were identified, the applicant was previously contacted and given an opportunity to amend errors or missing information. Late applications are not being accepted for this program.
