Protecting your refund

Protecting your refund

Beginning in 2014, the Pennsylvania Department of Revenue will be instituting new security measures to identify and intercept fraudulent refund filings. The Pennsylvania Department of Revenue has partnered with Revenue Solutions, Inc., a fraud identification company to help prevent fraudulent refund payments.

New Security Process:

  1. The taxpayer will be contact by the PA Department of Revenue by way of a letter sent to the address on their tax return.
  2. The letter will instruct the tax payer to call a designated number and speak with Revenue Solutions, Inc. representative.
  3. The tax payer will be asked to answer several questions to verify.

If your refund has been delayed due to this new program, please be sure to contact your Acuity Tax Representative at 717.239.5180.
