he IRS may be looking for you – in a good way. The IRS has been receiving returned mail addressed to many students who have changed their address. The mail contains checks for refunds. Students are usually the most mobile, according to IRS officials. If this sounds like you, go the IRS website; www.irs.gov and click on “Where’s My Refund.”
Calling the hotline will also provide the same refund information at 1-800-829-1954. It is important to keep your address current with the IRS in order to secure all the benefits to which you’re entitled. Over 111,800 general refund checks have been returned recently to the IRS offices. These checks are $1,471 on an average – some individuals have even more money coming.
It’s your money and you want it now!
