After you file

My refund was delayed. Direct deposit was setup.

Afer resolution, the IRS decided to mail a paper check.

They have rules but no one to know what they are.

" mailed check when there is a $0 tax liability?"

if you're saying your tax was Zero, but your refund was over $10,000, that might trigger a paper check after review by IRS. How did that happen ??
