If the payment hasn’t been credited and your check hasn’t cleared, you may choose to place a stop payment order on the original check and send another payment. If you choose this option, the IRS won’t charge a dishonored check penalty. And you may be reimbursed for bank charges related to stopping payment.

How long does it take the IRS to cash my check?
IRS will cash the check as soon as it is received. It will post to your taxes the exact day received. The check should clear your bank about 10 days from the time you mailed it. IRS will process the refund returns first but payments are cashed as received.
Why is the IRS not cashing my checks?
This is the story we are hearing from more than a few clients. They sent some pretty big checks in to the IRS to pay their taxes, someone at the IRS even signed to acknowledge receipt, but the IRS still hasn’t cashed the checks. Now, they are not sure what to do.
What does it mean when the IRS deposits a check?
The deposit of the check by the IRS means they received it and credited it to your account. It means nothing else. No, the IRS has been known to cash a check, with no idea how to apply it. Cashing the check means the amount has been applied to your account.
Are there any pending payments to the IRS?
Pending Check Payments and Payment Notices: If a taxpayer mailed a check (either with or without a tax return), it may still be unopened in the backlog of mail the IRS is processing due to COVID-19. Any payments will be posted as the date we received them rather than the date the agency processed them.
