What happens when you get a Rapid Refund from say HR Block. Is that classified as a direct deposit or a check-by-mail?

HR Block will first lend you an amount equal to your anticipated refund minus fees. It will give you this loan in the form of a check or a prepaid debit card. You will sign a piece of paper authorizing HR Block (or its bank) to open a bank account in your name and you will give them power of attorney to make withdrawals from the bank account. HR Block will put down on your tax return that you want your refund direct deposited into the bank account that you just authorized them to open. The IRS will direct deposit your refund into the bank account. HR Block (or its bank) will then immediately withdraw your refund from the bank account and use the money to repay the loan they gave you earlier. If, for any reason, the IRS does not direct deposit your refund into the bank account or deposits less than expected, then HR Block (or its bank) will pursue you directly to repay the loan.


Can the veterans hospital take your federal tax refund?

If you agree to copays, and that balance exceeds 90 days, the VA notifies Treasury. Treasury places that name in a database and uses it to claim the refund up to the amount of the balance to VA. You then get a letter notifying you and you can then contact VA if you dispute the balance. Treasury also includes in the database State taxes owed and not paid along with child support arrears and student loans.

What is the statute of limitations for ex to claim half of tax refund?

As far as the IRS is concerned, if your ex was not included on the tax return for the year that you are filing, they would have no claim to your refund. If you were filing a joint return for that year then the spouses name is listed on the return and they would have to sign the check in order for you to cash it. Be very careful here, if you endorse the check for the refund by signing your former spouses name to the check, you will be guilty of fraud by conversion and for forgery. The IRS will prosecute someone who commits forgery by signing someone else's name on a check.

Your car was totaled in a cardeer accident the insurance was in a friends name and a check was mailed by the insurance whos check is it mine or his?

Legally, its the friends because the insurance was in the friends name. Insurance checks are meant to be used on repairs to the vehicle or toward the purchase of a new vehicle. So you could try to force the friend to use the check toward the vehicle by taking them to court. Or you can start paying for your own insurance and not have to worry about the loyalty of your friends.
