I’ve just finished my taxes and am getting ready to send in my check (electronic payment incurs a fee — no, government, I won’t pay you to send you my money). Came across this gem on the voucher instructions:
IRS Payment Voucher: No checks of $100 million or more accepted. The IRS can’t accept a single check (including a cashier’s check) for amounts of $100,000,000 ($100 million) or more. If you are sending $100 million or more by check, you will need to spread the payments over two or more checks, with each check made out for an amount less than $100 million.
*sigh* Great. What a freakin’ inconvenience, eh?
I know, how inconvenient. Well, I guess if you are the person who just one 1.5 billion in the lottery….

Holy moly! Who knew that the IRS was so ill-prepared for such a thing. Do checks like that happen often…?

I found it so amusing that they’ll apparently take a check for $99,999,999, but not $100,000,000. Like that dollar makes a difference? It doesn’t say a $99,999,999 check needs to be sent in two or more parts….. ….. …

I wonder if they’re on DOS. LOL
Sorry.
Yeah, well I guess having that kind of money comes with problems I can’t fathom.

My continuing thought: Who, in the meeting to design the instructions, thought to add that?
It has to be an IRS inside joke or something. 🙂
