What is the US Department of the Treasury Bureau of the Fiscal Service?

At the Bureau of the Fiscal Service, we collect revenue, delinquent debt, and disburse funds to millions of Americans ensuring their timely receipt of benefit payments. Our easy-to-set-up direct deposit programs streamline the government benefit payment process.

What government checks come from Kansas City?

Your federal income tax refunds; Social Security benefits; Supplemental Security income; Railroad Retirement Board benefits; veteran's pay, pension, and education benefits all come from the National Payment Center of Excellence. Payments to federal workers, vendors, and grantees also come from Kansas City.

What is a Treasury check?

All U.S. Treasury checks are printed on watermarked paper. When held up to the light, the watermark reads “U.S. Treasury” from both the front and the back. Any check should be suspected as counterfeit if the check has no watermark, or the watermark is visible without holding the check up to light.

Which report is required by the US Treasury from US government agencies to provide a status of debt due from the public?

The TROR serves as a management report that informs Federal decision makers of the gross book value of the receivables owed to Federal agencies and the status of the Federal Government's debt portfolio.
