Schumer urges New Yorkers to claim unclaimed tax refunds
WASHINGTON, D.C. – Senator Charles Schumer wants to make sure Upstate New Yorkers don’t miss out money owed them in the form of unclaimed tax refunds.
“There are millions of dollars sitting in Washington that should be in families’ checking and savings accounts across Upstate New York,” the Democrat said last week, as he urged anyone who hasn’t filed their 2007 tax return to do so before April 18.
If they don’t, he said, an estimated $33.8 million will stay “in Washington for good.”
According to numbers releases by Schumer’s office, that is how much the 27,000 upstate residents who haven’t filed a 2007 tax return are due, based on a median potential refund of more than $700.
According to their figures, in Chenango County alone, 163 people are owed a refunds totaling $204,233.
“That’s not an insignificant amount,” said Schumer’s press secretary, Matt House.
Last week a section was added to the senator’s website to make it easier for people to contact the IRS and see about their refund, House explained. The information can be accessed by visiting www.schumer.senate.gov and clicking on the count-down clock.
“I want to make sure that all Upstate New Yorkers get every penny that they’re owed come tax day, and I want to make it as easy as possible for them to do so,” the senator said.
“The clock is ticking on this money, but with quick action, thousands of New Yorkers could put this money right in their pocket where it belongs.”
New York residents can also find information about e-filing their 2010 taxes on the site, which Schumer described as the “safest and fastest option” for filing a tax return.
