If you did, perhaps your name is listed among those below. : According to Karen Sklencar, Public Affairs Specialist at the Internal Revenue Service office in Philadelphia, thousands of Penn- sylvanians didn't collect their refunds last year. In most cases, she said, the refund checks were mailed and returned as undeliverable. The most common reason was that the recipient had moved and left no forwarding address. : How much money is involved? While Ms. Sklencar can't release individual amounts, she did say that the largest unclaimed return she knew of was about $38,000, and there are many in the $4-5,000 range. : Below we have listed the names of persons in the Back Mountain and greater Wilkes-Barre area who have refunds coming. The complete list is available for viewing in The Post's office in the 309- 415 Plaza in Dallas. Ifyou are one of the lucky ones, you may call the Taxpayer Service at 1-800-424-1040 to claim your refund. They will send forms to verify your claim, and it will take about six weeks to complete the process. Good luck! Chantelle O'Toole, Pittston 18640 Mary Stacj, Exeter 18643 Charles R. Belgio, W.
