Across New York, nearly 1.6 million inflation refund checks have been cashed, amounting to more than $388 million, state officials told Newsday. Gov. Hochul implemented the $2 billion initiative to award taxpayers checks of up to $400 to reimburse them for a jump in state sales tax revenue due to elevated inflation, tax officials said.

And since September, the state has mailed out about 3 million of the 8.2 million checks it estimates will be sent to New York residents, officials have said. On Long Island, 1.25 million people are eligible for a check.
