Tips

After the story about the IRS mailing stimulus checks to incorrect recipients, I've been on the lookout for one of those recipients. No one I know. At least, no one is fessin' up. And as much as I've sung the praises of direct deposit, apparently mistakes have cropped up there too.

Anyway, if you receive someone else's $600, please report it to the IRS (paper check) or your bank (if it was already directly deposited). Do it.

If you're still waiting for your dough, you're probably going to be told one of the following:
1. The checks are on their way and will continue to be disbursed until at least July, depending on when you filed.
2. Go here.
3. Call the Refund Hotline at 800-829-1954 Sphere: Related Content
