The mistake isn't permanent, the IRS can still at least attempt to collect back money sent in error. Money doesn't vanish forever just because it went into someone's bank account.
- renewiltord 6y agoTrue, true, but the money involved is so little that it's likely to result in not much regained, right? After all, the IRS doesn't usually find it worthwhile to send tax delinquency information to the state dept (which is the usual mechanism to force payment from non-resident non-citizens) for these sums. Though if I think about it, non-residents who were legitimately paying taxes are unlikely to not return the money if asked so maybe it's worth it.
