BISMARCK, N.D. (KFGO-AM) North Dakota's Tax Department is seeing more fraudulent returns this year than it did in 2014.
Tax Commissioner Ryan Rauschenberger says his office suspended work on income tax refunds last Thursday to catch up on dealing with fraudulent returns and put additional safeguards in place to catch bogus filings before they're processed.
The Tax Department resumed work on tax refunds Monday night. Rauschenberger says he appreciates the patience of taxpayers.
Taxpayers can check the status of their refunds at www.nd.gov/tax with the ``Where's My Refund?'' tool.
