I was in the same boat. No US bank account and my Bancomer bank won't cash Treasury checks. I now have a US bank account even though I'm not a US resident. If interested, I'll tell you how to do it.

Request rejected (7 or 8 times) Here is your error(s): Issue: Business Rule IND-515-01 - The Primary SSN in the Return Header must not be the same as the Primary SSN in another return filed for the same tax year. You must enter either your 2018 Adjusted Gross Income (AGI), or your 2018 five-digit self-selected signature PIN.

I guess I've tried 7 times or more. Lately adding 0 for income and not checking the box for filing jointly or singly. Every time I finish page two and then "continue", I'm told to go back to page 2.

Thanks again, ibarra, but I get lost every time I try to submit my banking information with the non-filers tool. I keep getting only the tax return form.

Dial 001880 I got thru almost immediately. Person told me they take the region into account for when check should have been received. For Mexico it's been 60 days since May 8th. Nine business weeks (63 days) is what triggers when check should have been received. She told me to go ahead and file IRS Form 3911

Tried the non-filers form but got the following error: Here is your error: Issue: Business Rule IND-515-01 - The Primary SSN in the Return Header must not be the same as the Primary SSN in another return filed for the same tax year. I filled out tax info for 2018 because I didn't see any other way. No idea what's going on. I've been filing my tax returns all my life.

How do we exchange PMs? What's a PM?

Thank you, ibarra.

A month ago, I started a thread about what a person is to do if he wants to cash a Treasury check here in Mexico but doesn't have a US bank account. I had a US bank account until five years ago when my Citibank Banamex in California suddenly closed all accounts with citizens living abroad. What to do? So after weeks of searching I found the solution. Join https://www.americansabroad.org/ As an ACA member, you can open an account with State Department Federal Credit Union.

Since non-filers are people who normally don't file a tax return, what should a person who files tax returns every year do if he still hasn't received the check thru Mexican mail? My plan is to inform Treasury that my check has been lost and that I want them to do a direct deposit. Any ideas on how to contact them?

Last year I was in Austin and signed my IRS check over to my son. He cashed it. But this year the same bank said no and that the check from the year before would probably eventually bounce even up to 7 years later.

I have BBVA Mexico. Last time I checked they will not let me deposit US Treasury checks. Depositing a check online is a new to me. Would you have to scan it? I'm also expecting a check from a non-governmental source. I wonder if BBVA cashes those?

Last year I signed by IRS tax refund check over to my son in Austin. No problem. Now he went to his bank with another signed over IRS check I mailed to him a few weeks ago and bank told him you can't sign over Treasury checks and that the check he cashed with them last year would probably bounce eventually (they have up to seven years). What can I do to cash my check? Help appreciated.

My domestica, who lives in Guadalajara, hasn't been coming here since the lock-down started. I've been paying her regularly anyway, of course. Now I'm wondering if Tapatios are allowed to come here by bus so she could do some work in the garden while we practice social distancing.

False alarm. Just got paid.

Thank you, Ibarra. Just checked and annuity has been deposited. Whew!

I've been getting direct transfers of my social security and government retirement annuity to my Bancomer account for many years. So far, nothing this month. Has anyone else experienced this?

Any word on whether the Guadalajara SAM's Clubs are open?

Success. I don't know how I did it, but I paid and have a receipt. Couldn't find "paga CFE" anywhere. But thanks a lot All Day and everybody else.

I know what balance means, but not what I have to do online.

Not sure what is meant by balance. I have a CFE bill I want to pay. I've been paying CFE bills for 20 years at Walmart.

OK, then Walmart?
