Not the same checking account for tax rebate checks????

After I got my federal tax return this year I closed my checking account it was direct depsosited in and opened anoother one with a different company. What happens now?? do i just automatically get one in the mail??? I need my Bush money, lol

Yes, if your account to where your refund was sent has been closed, your rebate check will come in the mail.

I am in the same boat as you. I had to close my account that I received my tax refund in. From what I have been told by the IRS and also reading what is posted on their website, they initially try and deposit the rebate check into the same account as you had for your tax refund. Of course it will be rejected b/c the account is no longer active, and once it gets rejected and returns to the IRS, they convert the ACH deposit into a paper check and mail it to you. What I can't get a clear answer on is how long this process takes, and once they convert the deposit into a paper check, do they mail the paper check out under the paper check schedule?? I have called the IRS numerous times and get conflicting answers from each person I speak with. What it boils down to is that if your bank account info that you previously used is no longer valid, they will mail you the rebate check to the address listed on your tax return. I'm just not sure when. The IRS could be a bit more clear on their procedures for people that fall in the "gray" area, but that's the government for you...

go to irs.gov
and consult the irs.
the money will be deposited into your account and i have no way of knowing if it can be forwarded into your new account automitacally or if you have to tell them the new account..

i do taxes....

I believe they all will come in the mail, as long and you havent moved you will be all right...
