The IRS issues over 101 million tax refunds on a yearly basis and over 80% of these are via Direct Deposit. The average refund amount is over $3,000. With such a high volume, it is imperative that your financial institution handle tax refunds with the utmost care and caution to avoid large dollar losses that can be caused by not understanding the unique requirements of IRS tax refunds. These requirements address account number/name matching situations, deceased recipients, refunds posting to incorrect accounts, and refunds as exception items. Ensure you handle these exceptions correctly to minimize the liability of your financial institution.

This Webinar Covers:

• The rights and obligations of the financial institution, account holder, and tax preparer
• What happens when the name and account number do not match?
