Re: Got a check but no legal name

I find it odd that the government would issue a check to a different name than you reported on your tax forms.

Even so, if they have your last name correct, and used Kathy instead of Katherine, I would find it hard to believe that your bank would not accept this check.

Why not try that first. If it doesn't work, you can go through the hassle of having the government re-issue you a replacement check with your correct name.
