With all the speed of a depressed snail...

Some of you might remember the saga of the IRS and their ridiculous phone system. The short and sweet version is: IRS lost my check, said I owed taxes still, took those taxes out of my stimulus check, but somehow managed to cash the first check anyway. Best I could figure out, they applied my check to someone else's account. I opened a dispute, but had to give up because of their ridiculous phone system and school.

Today I got a refund from the IRS for the exact amount of the taxes I paid twice last year.

It only took them 8 months to figure the whole thing out. -_-
