The annual payment allows for Alaskans to share in a portion of the State minerals revenue in the form of a dividend to benefit current and future generations.

To be eligible for a Permanent Fund Dividend, you must have been an Alaska resident for the entire calendar year preceding the date you apply for the dividend. You must also intend to remain an Alaska resident indefinitely at the time that you apply.

The Alaska Permanent Fund is a state-owned investment fund established using oil revenues. It has, since 1982, paid out an annual dividend to every man, woman, and child living in Alaska. In 2015, with oil prices high, the dividend totaled $2,072 per person, or $8,288 for a family of four.

This year's check will be $1,600 per person. Roughly $980 million will be paid out Thursday, said Permanent Fund Dividend Division operations manager Anne Weske. Smaller payments will also trickle out to residents later, coming to a grand total of just over $1 billion for the 2018 PFD.

Dividends are typically ordinary unless a Form 1099-DIV states otherwise. You'll report dividend income on your 2018 tax return in the following places: Ordinary dividends are reported on Line 3b of your Form 1040. Qualified dividends are reported on Line 3a of your Form 1040.

Generally, if your dependent has any type of income, it's a good idea to check if they may need or want to file a tax return. If the dependent has unearned income to report, you may be able to claim it on your federal return under certain circumstances but if it's earned income, you can't.

However, because dependents must file a tax return if they have unearned income greater than $950, every dependent who received the PFD will be required to file a tax return.

PFD money is taxable income, though no federal income taxes are withheld. It is your responsibility to correctly report all PFD income for you and your minor child and pay all associated taxes.
