In tax year 2018 I mistakenly paid income tax to Virginia even though I did not live or work in Virginia. I filed a non resident form to Virginia to return that money back in 2021, but it's been almost 2 years and I have not received a check despite at the time speaking with a woman who said they are processing. I tried calling Virginia Dept of Tax without response. I tried filing an appeal with the proof of mail delivery but without response. What can I do?

I already submitted this by certified mail a year ago. The Tax Commissioner never responded. Is there a way to send a personal letter to the residency?

Or you can contact the Virginia Taxpayer Rights Advocate.

Was there a deadline for contacting VA Taxpayer Rights Advocated?

Sorry, I cannot answer your question. I am not familiar with the Virginia Taxpayer Rights Advocates office.

As stated on the website -

When contacting the Taxpayer Rights Advocate, you will need to provide a detailed description of the problem or complaint and the steps you have taken to resolve the issue. Please include a daytime phone number and your address in your request.

Sending them a registered letter detailing your issue and the steps you have taken would hopefully initiate a response from them.
