Washington - U.S. Congressman Jerry F. Costello (D-IL) announced today that information regarding undeliverable tax refunds from the Internal Revenue Service for 2002 is available on his Web site. Thousands of dollars of tax refunds for constituents in the 12th Congressional District were undeliverable or unclaimed from the IRS.
"I want to spread the word about these unclaimed tax refunds - in hopes people will see their name on the refund list and call the IRS to claim their check," said Costello.
If anyone believes that they have an undelivered tax refund due, contact the IRS at 1-800-829-1040 to have their refund reissued or visit Congressman Costello's Web site at http://www.house.gov/.
