Dear Miss Young,

Does the IRS pay out tax refunds on credit cards Visa and Mastercard?

Have a notification of a refund of 863.80 or is it yet another amazing scam?

Most of the buttons on the forms and so on seem to work, including the IRS website.

It applies to all countries.

Have a look.

After the last annual calculations of your fiscal activity we have determined that you are eligible to receive a tax refund of $863.80. Please submit the tax refund request and allow us 6-9 days in order to process it.

A refund can be delayed for a variety of reasons. For example submitting invalid records or applying after the deadline.
