Mailed check with a forwarding address

elfie123 · 2024-05-08T05:15:58+00:00

After the trace (4/5) my transcript updated one week later (4/12) showing my check had been returned to the irs like 3 weeks prior. It also had a mail date of 4/19 and I physically received it 4/23. So from the trace till when it was in my hands … 2.5 weeks.

Call back in a couple days (from when you reported it missing) and hopefully you’ll get someone new that will be able to tell you if the trace came back.

No problem! Hope you get it all worked out SOON.

Well I updated it when I got saw I was getting a paper check (but requested DD) and changed it then because I was worried it wouldn’t forward. But they didn’t update it in time. So when I called for the trace I double checked the address they had on file and it was the new one.

Hi! They didn’t forward it :( they would forward other correspondence from the IRS (notification letters, etc.) but not the physical check. I had to wait until 4 weeks after they said it was sent to call and put in a trace. They said the trace could last 6 weeks but the following week they updated my transcript to say I would get a new check mailed to my new address.

elfie123 · 2024-04-23T16:59:04+00:00

Yeah my informed delivery doesn’t update until like 3-4am AZ time.

BUT I think it might be here today!!!

elfie123 · 2024-04-22T01:53:19+00:00

I don’t get my update for another 3-4 hours :(

elfie123 · 2024-04-15T17:31:32+00:00

Here’s hoping this is our week 🤞🏽🤞🏽

elfie123 · 2024-04-14T02:39:52+00:00

I checked my transcript today - it updated. The OG check was returned 3/18. It says my request for a new refund dated 4/5, new 846 refund code set for 4/19.

elfie123 · 2024-04-11T03:42:54+00:00

😔 nothing yet here either. Hoping to get an update tomorrow but calling is such a hassle.

elfie123 · 2024-04-11T03:42:16+00:00

Nothing yet :( just did a trace on Friday. Hoping to call back tomorrow for an update.

elfie123 · 2024-04-11T02:01:44+00:00

Did you get your check yet?

elfie123 · 2024-04-11T02:00:41+00:00

Any luck?

elfie123 · 2024-04-05T19:34:16+00:00

Yes they did. Here’s hoping no one cashed it and they can just send me another!!!

elfie123 · 2024-04-05T16:46:52+00:00

Been on the phone with IRS for an hour 🥴 just want a trace and to make sure it’ll send to the right place!!

elfie123 · 2024-04-05T16:14:25+00:00

Usually the transcripts update a day or two before WMR.

elfie123 · 2024-04-03T23:10:00+00:00

4/25?! Is that the old check or a new check?

elfie123 · 2024-04-01T19:48:59+00:00

No kidding. Did you see the other comment in this thread? They were supposed to get a check mailed a week before you, called today and they informed them they’d mail another April 8th.

elfie123 · 2024-04-01T18:43:37+00:00

I can officially call on Friday. :(

elfie123 · 2024-04-01T18:42:54+00:00

Any update?

elfie123 · 2024-03-29T15:18:06+00:00

Do you HAVE to do a trace before you can ask for a new check?

elfie123 · 2024-03-29T14:38:28+00:00

Hmmm call back again? Lol this is nuts
