Printed on the check is:
Grandmas Name, deceased,
c/o my Moms Name, executor.

(4,608 posts)The anniversary of her passing was earlier this week and Mom had a rough day. We miss her and Grandpa, a lot. I am in the middle of moving so today we have been going through the furniture and rugs and tons of other stuff that has been packed away in storage since she passed (which made it even more jarring to see that check in the estate mailbox today). Its been bittersweet to remember where she had this end table or that vase in her house.
We have a lot of good memories.

(82,849 posts)With all the millions of mailings going out, there are bound to be mistakes. Mark the check VOID, keep copies of the check and your letter showing that you sent it back on such-and-such a date. That way, in a year or two, when the government comes looking for checks that shouldn't have been issued, you will have something to show them that the check wasn't or shouldn't have been cashed, and that if it was, it wasn't by you.

(4,608 posts)We havent been able to find clear instructions on how to return it. We are definitely not cashing it, but figured wed hold on to it until the craziness slows down. I imagine the irs is totally swamped right now.

Mothers name, deceased
Signed by President Donald Trump!
I dont trust them enough to just send it back. Theyll lose it and keep coming back looking for it til the day I die. Maybe Ill just hold onto it till they come looking for it.

(4,608 posts)Lots of people need that money now (or needed it weeks ago) and still havent gotten their check.
I hope you are found eligible and get the payment soon.

Can I write below it's name, 'Der Hair Fuhrer' without violating any rule that would make the bank not cash it?
