Has anyone received their IRS check that was mailed last week?
My transcript shows my refund check was mailed out last week but still nothing in my mailbox. Starting to worry if this is normal or not. Anyone else get their mailed refund from last week yet?

IRS usually takes 5-7 business days for mailed refund checks to arrive after the mail date on your transcript. If you don't receive it within 2 weeks, you should contact the IRS to initiate a payment trace. Make sure your address is correct on your return.

I've been using taxr.ai to track all my refund stuff and it's been super helpful. It analyzes your transcript and tells you exactly when to expect your check and if there are any issues that could delay it. Only costs a buck too https://taxr.ai

Check if your mailbox is locked or if there's any forwarding issues with your address. Sometimes refund checks get returned to IRS if there's a delivery problem. Also double check the mailing address on your return matches exactly what's on file with USPS. Hope you get it soon!

•Great advice! I had a similar issue last year where my check got returned because of a slight address mismatch. Had to call IRS and update my address on file, then they reissued it. Definitely worth double checking everything matches up perfectly.
