Did the letter ask for your bank routing number and your account number
and was the postmark from Nigeria? :-)

That was my first thought but they did not ask me for anything.

I did look at that return and it was a cluster****.
I screwed up the first swing at it. I filed an amended return and they
came up with another number I could agree with so I called it a day.
None of them match this number and the discrepancies were just a few
hundred bucks one way and the other. I am really starting to wonder if
I never got that check (those numbers are close) but I think I would
have remembered it not coming since that is our air fare and rentacar
on vacation. I am thinking about stopping by the bank and seeing if
they can pull up my DDA but I am not sure when the EFT would have
come.
I am just going to sit tight and see if they pay me. If it is a check
they never sent me it is found money and if they just screwed up I
will pay them back if they find it.


I'm in limbo, my accountant eFiled my return, it was rejected. Reason,
I claimed my working child, and the IRS says he also claimed himself.
He didn't,
I helped him with his taxes and made sure he didn't. I have his return,
he didn't claim himself, my accountant has his return, he also says he
didn't claim himself.
The additional paperwork is in process.

BTW, on a 1040, you check a box if you are claiming as a dependent,
on a 1040EZ, you check a box if you are NOT claiming as a dependent.
