The Internal Revenue Service is looking for 18 people across the Big Sandy Region in attempt to get to them undelivered tax refunds or stimulus payments, returned to post offices due to mailing address errors.

According to IRS statistics, five Floyd County residents, three in Johnson, seven in Pike and one each in Knott, Magoffin and Martin counties have checks that have not been picked up.

The following are those in each county who are listed in IRS statistics:

Floyd County – Travis Mullins, Amy and Michael Puckett, Kelly N. Clark, Cindy L. and Charles Hughes and Julius E. Jones.

Johnson County – Eddie W. and Melene D. Lemaster, Justin K. Ratliff and Justin D. Russell.

“Kentucky taxpayers should not miss out on getting their money back,” said IRS Spokesperson Jodie Reynolds. “The IRS makes it as easy as possible for taxpayers to update their addresses and claim their refunds.”

Statewide, the IRS is seeking 921 taxpayers due to receive a combined $838,000 in refund checks, with those averaging $910, compared to $898 last year. Some taxpayers are due more than one check.

If a refund check is returned to the IRS as undeliverable, taxpayers can generally update their addresses with the “Where’s My Refund?” tool on IRS.gov. The tool enables taxpayers to check the status of their refunds.

Those checking on the status of a refund by phone will be given instructions on how to update their addresses. Taxpayers can access a telephone version of “Where’s My Refund?” by calling 1-800-829-1954.
