Pago Pago, AMERICAN SAMOA — In a brief statement yesterday, ASG Treasurer Malemo Tausaga announced that the fourth batch of tax refunds — more than $900,000 — is scheduled for release today, Friday, Mar. 19th for taxpayers, who filed between Jan. 29 and Feb. 1st.

Tax filers with mailing addresses will receive their checks in the mail, while those without mailing addresses can pick up their checks at theTreasury Disbursing Office on the ground floor of the A.P. Lutali Executive Office Building — where social distancing and wearing a face mask is encouraged.

A total of 432 taxpayers are covered in the 4th batch.

Of the total of $904,962 in tax refunds, $354,278 is paid from locally collected funds and $550,684 is from the Additional Child Tax Credit, which is funded by the US Internal Revenue Service.

If you are expecting a tax refund and did not receive it, visit the Tax Office and have the following documents on hand so that the Tax Office can provide service expeditiously:

• copy of your tax return

• a valid form of identification

• social security card — and also for the spouse if married filing jointly.
