Ohio’s Sen. Brown alerts Ohioans to unclaimed tax refunds
WKYC – U.S. Sen. Sherrod Brown (D-OH) is alerting Ohioans to the fact that about 900 Northeast Ohioans out of the nearly 2,500 Ohio residents have unclaimed tax refunds owed to them by the Internal Revenue Service.
Out-of-date addresses have caused these refunds to be returned by the U.S. Postal Service, and nearly 900 of these checks are waiting for Northeast Ohio taxpayers.
"Nearly 2,500 Ohioans can receive checks from the IRS if they update their mailing addresses," said Brown. "With family budgets already stretched thin, Ohioans should not miss out on refunds they're owed. I encourage all Ohioans who have not received their refunds to contact the IRS to determine if there's a check waiting for them."
Ohio taxpayers who have not received tax refunds can visit the Where's My Refund? page at the IRS website or call (800) 829-1040 to check on their status.
