Need Help on Tax Return

I chose to receive my tax refund as a check and it has been 2 months and I still haven't received any checks. My application has been approved by the IRS. The check is being shipped but not reaching me. I don't know where I am doing wrong. Where can I find someone who can help me for money or free?

Need Help on Tax Return

Does the IRS refund site say the check was mailed?   Have you checked your tax return to make sure you entered the correct mailing address?  If you made a mistake with the address you will need to send in a change of address form and have the refund traced.

 

You need your filing status, your Social Security number and the exact amount  (line 35a of your 2022 Form 1040) of your federal refund to track your Federal refund:

@vergimiver Please keep your related posts in just one thread.  I see now that you have posted to several different threads about the mailed refund check.   In one of your other threads you mention that you are in Turkey, and have no mailbox.   In another thread you say you used an incorrect address.   You have asked about tracking the mailed check.   When the IRS mails a check, there is no tracking.  You simply have to watch your mail and open all mail that arrives even if you think it looks like junk mail.   Ask your local post office what happens if they try to deliver mail when you are not at home to receive it personally.   No one at TurboTax knows what has happened to the check the IRS mailed to you.   TurboTax gets no information after you file your tax return.

Need Help on Tax Return

Hello
Previously, I thought that the tax check was shipped, but it did not come because my address was wrong. However, when I checked my address on the IRS website, I realized that my address was correct. It is stated that it was shipped on April 28. I still have no idea why he hasn't come. There are many shipping companies. When I ask the post office, they say that nothing has been sent to my name in the last 3 months.

Hello
When I enter where's my refund, it wants me to create a claim if it didn't arrive that the check was sent on april 28, which I have already created. When I click create claim, it says a claim has already been created.

Your multiple posts about this have made it hard to follow exactly what you have done.   Did you actually complete this form and either fax or mail it to the IRS?

"There are many shipping companies"  The IRS does not use a "shipping company" to send your check.  They use first class United States mail.    As for what happens when the envelope arrives in your country, we cannot say.

No I did not fill that form. What is it about?

That is the form you use with the IRS to request a trace on a lost or stolen refund check.  You need to read that link carefully and submit the form by either mailing it or faxing it to the IRS.
