IRS looking for Marylanders owed $1.7 million in unclaimed refunds

Who couldn’t use a few extra dollars these days? How about $1,086?

That’s the average refund owed 1,619 Marylanders whose tax refunds were returned to the IRS as undeliverable because of mailing errors. And some taxpayers are owed more than one check, the IRS says.

Nationally, 107,831 refunds totaling $123.5 million have been returned to the IRS as undeliverable.

Taxpayers owed a refund can update their address online with the “Where’s My Refund?” tool at www.irs.gov. They must submit a Social Security number, filing status and the amount of refund owed.

Or, taxpayers can call the IRS to update their addresses at 800-829-1954.
