Saskatchewan Government Insurance will begin mailing out about 709,000 rebate cheques this week over the next three weeks.
Due to a large volume of cheques being sent, customers can expect to receive their cheques any time between mid-May and mid-June.
SGI is advising customers to make sure their address information is up to date and to call its customer service centre if a rebate is not received by June 30.
“These rebates will provide a significant injection into the provincial economy, at a time when it will certainly be a welcome boost,” said Don Morgan, Saskatchewan’s minister responsible for SGI.
Rebates will be provided to anybody who has registered a vehicle in Saskatchewan and met the residency requirements to register a vehicle as of Feb. 26, 2021, including non-profit organizations and businesses.
The total value of rebates issued is $285,000,000, with the average person receiving about $380.
