was delivered today in my mailbox.
My question is just why did I get a the refund via USPS?
I am not debating the merits of GWB’s tax proposal but I am wondering why this thing was not direct deposited into my checking account.
Countless times from the media, accountants, lawyers, advisors, IRS, amongst others I was told to get into the 21st century and have my normal refund direct deposited. It was faster, safer, and easier. I AGREE! I DDed my refunds from the last two years.
Today I get a check, which a thief easily could have pilfered out of my unsecured street mailbox. I got to go to the bank and deposit it via night depository or ATM.
Why all the publicity to Direct Deposit your normal refunds if they didn’t DD the $300 or $600 refunds?
BTW, I do not want to debate the merits of getting a tax refund in April and giving the US Gov’t free interest on my money. I typically receive about $125 back and I am too worried about the $5 or $6 dollars I can make on that money
