Many NH residents not claiming one-time tax refund

PORTSMOUTH (AP) - The IRS says it looks like many New Hampshire residents are overlooking a chance to boost their tax refunds this year.

New Hampshire has the third-lowest percentage in the nation of taxpayers including a federal telephone excise tax refund. The refund is worth $30-$60.

The IRS says nearly 99,000 returns filed in New Hampshire did not claim the telephone refund, meaning about $3 million in refunds was not credited.

The government stopped collecting the tax last year after several courts ruled the tax was being applied incorrectly.
