      Anyone else switched over to check being mailed after ID verify with 4883c letter and now the check is being sent out to the wrong address. I called IRS to update address and agent states it will take two weeks for system to reflect address change. If this has happened to anyone, how long did it take to receive check once address was updated. I have mail forwarding but the post office is stating they won’t forward a government check.
      Thanks in advance for any help,
      Stella

          Yes they told me they will forward mail but not govt checks. Because I even said to her how is that so. I only got the 4883c letter because you all forwarded to me. Or else it would have also went to my old address or been returned to the IRS as undeliverable. Part of me is hoping they don’t know what they are talking about 😂 but at the same time I want to be proactiv.

            Well, I hope that is not true. I changed Apt numbers and IRS said they will forward mail if my old apt is on my check. Seems like the Govt not on the same page.
