Alaska Updates

Sep 202021
 

At this time, we are uncertain when disbursement will occur for Alaska’s CARES Act relief. Given the large numbers of applications submitted with errors and/or omissions it is takin the Commission longer than expected to process applications. Per Alaska’s approved spend plan, all applications that were received by the 5/28/2021 deadline must be processed before final relief amounts can be calculated. Furthermore, per the approved spend plan, applications submitted with errors and/or omissions must be given a 4-week grace period to rectify / amend. Regrettably this takes time to contact participants. We appreciate your patience in this matter. Please, if not already doing so, continue to monitor our website for updates. This will be our primary source for publicizing new information.
