SO WHAT ARE YOU DOING WITH YOUR REFUND CHECK THIS YEAR? STATE TAXATION AND REVENUE DEPARTMENT SECRETARY DEMESIA PADILLA SAYS ABOUT THREE QUARTERS OF NEW MEXICO TAX FILERS THIS YEAR ARE GETTING MONEY BACK…WITH REFUNDS AVERAGING 445-DOLLARS.
MOST ARE HAVING THOSE CHECKS DIRECT-DEPOSITED, WHICH PADILLA SAYS IS THE SAFEST WAY TO DO IT. IT'S FAST, GOES STRAIGHT TO YOU BANKING ACCOUNT, SO YOU DON'T RUN OF THE CHANCE OF SOMEONE STEALING THE RETURN CHECK FROM YOUR MAILBOX.
PADILLA TELLS 770 KKOB JUST UNDER 600-THOUSAND RETURNS HAVE BEEN PROCESSED SO FAR. THE TAX FILING DEADLINE, BY THE WAY, IS NEXT MONDAY.
