I still wasn’t able to cash my federal income tax check. I am having trouble. Please someone help me get my check cashed.

It seems some checks are not being cashed by certain financial institutions because they exceed the limits in place by that particular company.  Make sure the name on your check matches the name on your bank account. Try to go to your local bank to open an account so you can deposit the check.  Some banks will allow you to open an account but will retain a small portion of the deposit until the check clears.  Another option is to find a bank that can cash large checks without any restrictions.

 

If the bank has concerns with the validity of the check, they can contact Intuit directly at 1-800-335-9612.   A dedicated team is available for verification purposes.  Also, if the check is uncashed after 90 days, the check will be returned to the IRS.  The taxpayer can then work with the IRS to receive their tax return.

 

Please call Intuit directly at 800-335-9612.   A dedicated team is handling this.
