Where’s My Check?

The first rebate check from the IRS likely surprised more than a few recipients. Even with all the press it got, did anyone really expect it to come through? I mean the IRS actually giving back money?!? It just didn’t add up.

But this time around is different. History proves that it can really happen and now that we’ve heard more than a few times from Washington to expect a check this year people are asking questions. They are starting to wonder exactly when their check will come, what they can do to make it come faster and how they can make sure that they are eligible.

Trust me; IRSProblemsResolved knows that these are the questions that people are asking because they’re asking us these questions. Fielding these queries has become a pretty regular occurrence here at the office.

So, it’s not with a little relief that I can now report that the IRS has set up a special phone number that taxpayers can call with questions about the 2008 stimulus package checks. The IRS announced that people can call (866) 234-2942 with questions about their checks. There is also information available at IRS.gov.

Other problems with the IRS like back taxes, threats of levies, wage garnishment, etc. are where we shine. If you’re facing these sorts of issues or have other problems with the IRS we’d be glad to talk to you about them. Contact us with your IRS questions here.
