So based on our tax return, my wife and I were supposed to get $2k~ish back. Our accountant failed to check the direct deposit box this year so we ended up getting a paper check. The check is for nearly $6k. WTF?! 
I mean, cool. I like $$$. But I'm scared to cash the damn thing. It would be just like the IRS to send us too much, catch the error 3 years later, then charge us interest on the overage.
Anyone ever have this happen and what did you do? |
After seeing what you posted, my question to you is did you review your taxes before the accountant filed them? You need to sign via paper or electronically before submitting them.
4K is signifcant amount more than you expected.
