The latest estimates suggest that as many as 10 million U.S. taxpayers likely overpaid on their unemployment taxes and would be eligible for the refunds.
Like the past several batches, the tenth also featured a hefty number of checks that targeted recent tax filers who previously did not have the necessary information on file at the IRS.
