My tax return got sent to wrong address, what do I do?!?!

[SweetieJean]

Did you give the post office a forwarding address?

[Critter]

Do you mean you mailed your return to the wrong address ?  Or did the refund check get mailed to the wrong address?

[clayton562]

yes. nothing ever received. Still.

[VolvoGirl]

Which address was wrong?  Your home address?  Are you expecting a check or Direct Deposit?  Has the IRS sent it yet?

Did you efile?  Was it accepted?  You can check your efile status here     <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="https://turbotax.intuit.com/tax-tools/efile-status-lookup/">https://turbotax.intuit.com/tax-tools/ef...

Then what does the IRS say?  IRS Where’s my refund     <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="https://www.irs.gov/refunds/">https://www.irs.gov/refunds/</a>

If you won't give us exact answers we cannot help you and posting new questions is not helping anyone.

If the IRS did send your refund you need to call them 1-800-829-1040

I don't know if this thread from 4 months ago was about a 2017 return or a 2016 return.   In user's other thread he says it is a 2016 return.   If it's 2016, he can't use the efile status check tool, which is only for 2017.   But we don't know when he filed the 2016 return anyway, or if it was printed and mailed instead of efiled.    So between the two threads, it's confusing.   It's not clear what all the user has done.     Maybe this thread from 4 months ago was about a 2017 return, and his new thread is about 2016.

You have to call them like I just did, because it happened to me. Waiting on them now to re-issue the check. It's annoying. They do not forward tax returns.

What can I do to get my refund check sent to the correct address

[Critter]

Mail in a change of address form 8822 :  https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f8822.pdf

What if my refund was lost, stolen, or destroyed?

Generally, you can file an online claim for a replacement check if it's been more than 28 days from the date we mailed your refund. Where's My Refund? will give you detailed information about filing a claim if this situation applies to you.    https://www.irs.gov/refunds
