AN UNSOLICITED LETTER IN THE MAIL FROM THE IRS USUALLY ISN’T A GOOD SIGN, BUT THAT’S NOT THE CASE WITH ONE COMING SOON TO SOME FOUR-STATE AREA MAILBOXES. THE IRS IS SENDING LETTERS TO MORE THAN 9 MILLION AMERICANS WHO DID NOT CLAIM STIMULUS PAYMENTS, EARNED INCOME TAX CREDITS, OR OTHER BENEFITS. SO, IT MIGHT BE WORTH YOUR WHILE TO FOLLOW UP ON THE LETTER IF IT COMES TO YOUR HOME.
THE IRS IS LOOKING THROUGH A DATABASE AND SEEING WHO MAY NOT HAVE FILED A RETURN AND IF THEY ARE QUALIFIED FOR ONE OF THE REFUNDS. THE REMINDER LETTERS WILL BE ARRIVING OVER THE NEXT FEW WEEKS AND WILL BE PRINTED IN BOTH ENGLISH AND SPANISH.
