8% Annual Return with No Risk

Yesterday, PFBlog explained a nifty trick for making a risk-free investment with the US government and receiving a return of 8% from the Internal Revenue Service. How’s it work, you ask? In a nutshell:

  1. You make a large estimated tax payment for 2007 in March 2008.
  2. When you file your 2007 return in April, you request your big tax refund.
  3. Don’t cash your check from the IRS, ever. Destroy it.
  4. Wait as long as you’d like and then file a for 3911 with the IRS to request a replacement check.
  5. Your new check will include your accrued interest of 8%.

Will this work? Does anyone really want the IRS holding onto their money any longer than they have to?
