How do individuals receive the shares?
Distribution of dividends could be based on the Alaska Permanent Fund’s distribution system. The State of Alaska distributes proceeds from leasing state land to oil companies by wiring the money directly to the individual’s bank account, or by mailing a check. Another possibility is to have the share reside electronically on a debit card. When you do your state taxes, if you choose to receive the share, the State replenishes the card each year.
