IRS holds refund checks for more than 400 in R.I.

Still looking for that federal income-tax refund check? The Internal Revenue Service is holding nearly $300,000 for 415 people in Rhode Island whose refund checks were returned as undeliverable. That works out to an average of about $723 per check.
A refund check is typically returned to the IRS as undeliverable when a taxpayer moves without updating his or her address with either the U.S. Postal Service or the IRS, said IRS spokeswoman Peggy Riley. If your refund is among those that were returned, you can claim it by updating your address with the IRS. Complete the process by using the IRS Website or by calling the IRS at 1-800-829-1954 or 1-800-829-1040.
