After you file

@Chancej32 Your bank sent the refund back to the IRS and you have talked to the IRS.   You say the IRS suggested that you put a trace on the check.  But you are resisting that.  Why?   This happened in March and it is now nearly September.   What do you think you have to lose by requesting a trace?
