When I received our refund check in mail, our middle initials were transposed. I must have made the mistake when preparing return. Our bank will not deposit it because of incorrect initials. How do I get the IRS to stop payment on this check and get a new one issued?

    To contact the IRS, please follow the instructions below:

    How do I contact the Internal Revenue Service (IRS)?

     

    Note: 

    You will need to follow the prompts in order to speak to an IRS agent. There is a high call volume this time of year.

    When calling the IRS do NOT choose Option 1.   

    Choose Option 2 after you choose the language.   

    Then Press 1    

    Then Press 3   

    Then Press 2, it will then transfer you to an agent.
