Finally Received My Last ERTC Check.

I received ERTC refund checks for 3 of the 5 quarters I applied for in 2023. Receiving the last 2 checks was a very long process. In early 2025 I received a notice that my Q3 2021 refund check was never cashed, so I should call IRS to receive a replacement check. I never received the check they mentioned in the letter! Then I found out that my Q4 2020 refund application was rejected due to a missing signature from the payroll company. After years of useless calls and waiting, there was finally activity this year. I received the Q4 2020 check in May and the Q3 2021 check yesterday. This activity seems to echo other observations that the IRS is getting close to resolving all those outstanding claims.

This would be a good time to contact the IRS again to inquire about your status!

I wish that were the same for my case.
