About Sealaska distributions:

Sealaska distributions are made up of income from three sources — Business Operations, the Marjorie V. Young Shareholder Permanent Fund and ANCSA Section 7(i) Resource Revenue Sharing.

Only shareholders who hold Class B (urban) and Class C (at-large) shares receive 7(i) Resource Revenue Sharing funds directly from Sealaska. Sealaska sends the 7(j) funds for shareholders of Class A (village) shares directly to village corporations. It is at the discretion of those corporations how or if those funds are then distributed. Class D (descendants), L (left outs), and the additional E (Elders) shares (received by original shareholders upon turning 65) are not eligible for 7(i) payments as these share types are not original shares.
