My GF has yet to get hers or her tax return. The stimulus check went to an address from 2 years ago and she would be on hold for hours just trying to get her address updated and stopped calling. There's maybe $3k just sitting out there but the Treasury can't get it to her. This is why I vote blue, we need to adequately fund our government systems or face issues like this.

exactly. CA state unemployment system doesn't have any of these issues because they always vote blue and fund their govt systems.

a lot of people also ended up having to get checks even though they filed last year and everything. If you used any of the "pay for your e-filing with your tax refund", "get your tax refund as an amazon gift card with a 5% bonus!" etc type arrangements, your tax filing company actually was the bank account of record and the IRS has to send you a check since they don't have real banking info for you.
