My mom lost her tax return check?

Question

how do we go about getting a replacement, whats the quickest way?

Answer 1

With the high level of calls to the IRS about rebate issues, I would send a letter to the IRS explaining the situation.  Or you can call them at 1-800-TAX-1040.

Answer 2

the only way to get a replacement is to call the irs at 1-800-829-1040 and have them put a stop payment on the check.

trace the check to make sure it hasn't been cashed yet and or open an investigation and if they find it hasn't been cashed yet they'll reissue another one,i'm not sure how long it takes before it's reissued though.
