I had the same idea and looked into it. If you’re a salaried employee, the only way to not have withholdings taken from your paychecks is to claim withholding exemption on your W4, which you can only legally do if you had no tax burden last year and expect to have none this year. The threshold for that is really low, like $13,800/yr I think.

You can always try it anyway, but if they do come looking for their money, there will be penalties to pay on top of the tax amount.

It sucks because even just a high yield savings account could make you an extra $800 or so on your income tax money if you just held it and paid as a lump sum.

“Low income Alabama residents” is the key phrase. Considering the demographics of Alabama, the majority of people helped by this program were probably Black.
