IF the check is more than 1 year old, call the IRS at 1-800-829-0922, they will advise how to return the stale check and have a new check issued. Do not endorse the check if you have to send it back, write void where you would sign it.
You will need to write a note or letter advising why you are sending the check back and requesting a reissue of the check. Make sure that your name ,current address, SocialSecurity Number and what tax year the check is for is noted in your letter. When you call the IRS they will tell you where to send the check, it may take 6 to 8 weeks to get the replacement

Nothing. He's wasting his time with any forgery complaint, etc. and even if she was arrested and convicted he'd never see the money except in small increments. Ah well...he married her. He should have gotten he divorce instead of screwing around with this separation crap. Maybe this will spur him into action and cut ties with her once and for all. Just a costly lesson to learn, isn't it?

Look at the check, it should have something that says "VOID after ?? days". If over the limit of days (since the check is issued), you will have to contact the IRS to try to get the check reissued.
If it doesn't specify a time limit, you can probably still deposit it. But wait for the check to clear before spending the money, just in case.

Most banks consider a check stale-dated, and won't cash it, after six months. If you have one longer, you'd have to return it to the IRS and ask for a replacement. You don't just lose the money, although if you wait more than a couple years, you might.

How foolish is that? You can take it to a bank and try and if they can't you can contact the Tax office and explain your situation. They should issue a new chek in 8 to 10 weeks.

NO. because checks become stale after 6 months from date of issue. needs to be re-issued.

The government would probably screw you on that deal and give you absolutely nothing.
I'd say cash it ASAP, to be safe. there's no telling how long it would take to find out IF you can get another one issued.

Probably not. You'll have to get it re-issued.
