As per, New Mexico Tax and Revenue Administration, the rebates, which are based on how much money tax filers made in 2021, are reportedly being distributed to more than 500,000 people via direct deposit today, Wednesday, July 6. (TRD.)
While the state has started processing a fresh batch of tax rebates, hundreds of thousands of New Mexico taxpayers should anticipate seeing an extra $250 or $500 in their bank accounts this morning.

As previously indicated, the most recent rebates depend on individual income levels, or “adjusted gross income” for tax filers. If their adjusted gross income in 2021 was $75,000 or less, individuals who filed their taxes under the “single” status or as an individual will be given a $250 reimbursement.
Depending on their adjusted gross income from the previous year, joint filers who were a married couple or the head of household may be eligible for a greater refund. If they earned $150 000 or less in 2021, they will be given a $500 reimbursement.

TRD estimates that over the course of July, 710,000 New Mexicans will get tax refunds. In order to “help in the state’s short run recovery from the epidemic by stimulating consumption,” the legislature approved the one-time July rebates in February 2021.

Have you yet to receive a direct deposit rebate?
If you think you should be receiving a rebate but don’t receive one by direct deposit this week, your rebate will probably be issued to you via paper check. The printed checks will be distributed during the month of July.
Up to 210,000 New Mexico taxpayers who filed taxes in July will get paper checks as a result of the rebate programme. Just 14,000 checks can be printed every day by the state. That implies that some consumers could have to wait until the end of July to get a refund.
Charlie Moore, the communications director for the New Mexico Tax and Revenue Department, recently told KRQE News 13 that “again, we are requesting individuals to be patient and wait until the end of July before calling to ask about a rebate.”
“Even though we have sent in personnel from throughout the Department to help answer enquiries, our call centre has been overwhelmed by the amount [of calls about economic relief payments],” the department stated.
When are the rebate due again?.
The most recent “July rebates” differ because, as was already established, they are dependent on 2021 income levels. The other rebates given to New Mexicans this year are not based on their income.
All New Mexico tax filers and certain rebate applicants received a first wave of economic relief reimbursements in May and June, regardless of their income. Nearly 800,000 New Mexicans received the first round’s proceeds, totalling around $290 million.
In August, New Mexicans should get round two of the economic relief payments, worth either $250 for single tax filers or $500 for joint tax filers/heads of households. These rebates will be deposited directly into the accounts of hundreds of thousands of New Mexicans, but many will also get paper cheques.
The August rebates are being distributed through paper check, and TRD is hoping it won’t take as long. The Department has a contract with Wells Fargo Bank, the state’s fiscal agent, to print and deliver checks for the final batch of rebates in August, according to a TRD release.
Wells Fargo’s printing capacity, according to the state, is greater than its own, which should hasten the delivery of August rebates.
