The Oregon ‘kicker’ places money back into taxpayer pockets when the state collects more than a certain amount of revenue. Eligible Oregonians can look forward to receiving their share of cash soon (if they haven't already). That’s because a $5.61 billion revenue surplus for the 2021-2023 biennium was confirmed by the Oregon Office of Economic Analysis (OEA).
Lawmakers are calling the surplus the “largest in state history,” and Oregonians can expect to receive a record-high kicker amount. Eligible residents can claim the kicker as a refundable tax credit when they file their 2023 state tax returns, and the Oregon tax deadline is quickly approaching.
