I heard about this yesterday, and am still stunned that a computer/agent somewhere didn’t catch this when more than 100 checks went to the same address. Isn’t there some kind of “red flag threshold” for something like that? Apparently not.
This is something likely organized by the IRS under Obama. There’s no way you could have 23,000 people stop by the house to pick up their checks unless their were IRS agents sitting in the house distributing them, along with some armed guards. There’s something else going on here. This may be an undercover welfare system set up by Obama where illegals get taxpayer money as phony ‘refunds’.
They are working on it........... but need to hire more people who know Spanish.
There was when I filed for the adoption credit - after I submitted the paperwork through my tax preparer - I had to fax the same paperwork and talk to an IRS employee 3 times just to make sure I got my refund check...I did - but had I not stayed on top of it - logged the calls and wrote names and times down — I doubt it would have happened — the IRS made it absolutely chaotic and stressful...
They’re all *very small* aliens...

As an auditor I can tell you, there are basic continuous monitoring analytics that look for same address payments, duplicate payments, etc.
There is no excuse for this, except collusion to defraud the American taxpayer.
Leaves me to wonder if any political campaigns benefitted from these payments...
Government healthcare here we come!
This is what they are best at.
Second priority after wasting money is robbing anybody who is making it.
No te partido in the names, so red flag
Why aren’t the IRS computers programmed to limit the number of checks going to an address?
How many more instances of this are there?
