The checks average $1,365.
In most cases, the unclaimed checks were returned to the IRS due to mailing address errors.
The IRS is advising taxpayers who believe they're missing checks to go to the agency's Web site, IRS.GOV, and click on the "Where's My Refund?" tool. They can also call a toll-free telephone number, 1-800-829-1954.
