Georgia to Issue One-Time Tax Refunds Following New Legislation
Georgia taxpayers can expect one-time refunds in the coming weeks, thanks to House Bill 112 passed during the 2025 legislative session.
Eligible residents who filed both their 2023 and 2024 state tax returns on time will automatically receive a refund.
Governor Brian Kemp said, “Because we’ve managed our state’s resources wisely, we’re again able to return money to hardworking Georgians who know how best to use it.”
Refund amounts are based on your 2023 tax liability and are capped at the following:
$250 for single filers and married individuals filing separately
$375 for head-of-household filers
$500 for married couples filing jointly
To qualify, taxpayers must have filed both returns, paid state income taxes, and have no outstanding debt with the Georgia Department of Revenue.
Residents can check their eligibility using the Surplus Tax Refund Eligibility Tool at the Georgia Tax Center.
