Form IA-81 PDF Details

For individuals and businesses navigating the complexities of tax refund issues in Georgia, the Replacement Check Request Form, known as Form IA-81, serves as a crucial tool. Revised in May 2012, this form is specifically designed for instances where a refund check is either not received, lost, stolen, destroyed, or has expired without being cashed for more than 180 days after its issuance. It is important for taxpayers to understand the stipulations set forth by this form, such as the necessity to wait a minimum of 15 business days from the mailing date before submitting a request, and allowing for a processing time of 10-15 business days once the form has been completed and submitted. This form encompasses various tax types including individual, sales and use, withholding, motor fuel IFTA, and corporate taxes. Providing detailed taxpayer information, including the primary taxpayer or business name, social security numbers, state tax identification number, and both past and current mailing addresses, is imperative for the processing of the form. In addition, a concise declaration requirement emphasizes the need for accuracy and truthfulness under penalties of perjury. For taxpayers represented by a third party such as an attorney or accountant, a Power of Attorney (Form RD-1061) must also be included. Submission of the form can be done via mail or fax to the Georgia Department of Revenue, ensuring a methodical approach to resolving the issue of a misplaced or expired check, and reinstating the rightful funds to the taxpayer.
