Where the heck is my tax refund check? by Oceanview

Anyone still waiting to receive an income tax refund check from PR? We filed our tax US and PR tax returns well before the April 15th deadline. They were prepared by a local CPA firm, yet we have yet to receive a refund check from PR. We have no ...

They have seen my taxable income for the last time. If they're lucky, they may see some tourist money in the future. Read More

I'm pessimistic. They keep claiming that they will be completely out of liquidity at the beginning of the new year. Who knows. They're trying to get a bailout. I hope you are right. Read More

Still waiting. I've lost hope getting it before the New Year. You would think that they would refund before the new tax filing period but who knows. The deadline for delaying bond payments is up soon and they still seem to want a bailout from ... Read More

Didn't get last years refund until Feb.. Maybe with the US Gov't getting involved they feel safer paying refunds earlier. Be nice having the money for the holidays. Read More

Still waiting. This is the last year I will have had to file. PR will never owe me anything again. Curious as to the size of the refunds that they are paying. Owning me about seven grand, I may be on the higher end and may have to wait longer. Which ... Read More

They can protest all they want but I expect that the majority of Puerto Ricans would not want to cut ties with the states. They've already shown that they can't govern themselves so independence would be counter-productive. Read More

Interesting. At least they've started refunding. I don't think that the proposed bill in Congress will help speed up the process. Just like last year, we'll wait. Read More

That's ex post facto. There is no information regarding the last date that they must pay a refund before interest kicks in or how much interest they must pay. I can't find any information. Not even from the residents. Read More

So it looks like I'll be filing a Puerto Rican tax return for 2015 before I receive my refund for 2014. That should double the amount they owe me. I am not optimistic about ever seeing it. I don't consider it a loan. It is my money they are ... Read More

Since Puerto Rico is not a sovereign country, and the US has so far failed to bail them out, I think that whatever is owed in refunds should be declared a loss on federal income taxes or the US should make 'good' on whatever is owed. After ... Read More
