Where can an IRS refund check be cashed without a fee?
Deposit it in your bank account, there will be no fee. If you don't have a bank account, you can open one with the IRS check!
Why would the IRS put a freeze on your bank accounts?
If you are confident that you know that the IRS is the agency now in charge of your bank account, it may be that you owe the IRS money. Best practices dictate that you call the IRS and work out the details of your situation with them.
Why would the IRS levy a bank account?
The IRS would levy a bank account if the bank account holder had not paid his or her taxes. However, the IRS wouldn't do this unless they had exhausted all other means to collect. They would first send the taxpayer a notice that taxes had been assessed and demand payment. It the taxpayer ignored this notice the IRS would send another notice letting the taxpayer know it was their intention to levy his or her bank account, or other property. This would be sent 30 days before they actually levied the account. Don't ignore letters from the IRS!!

If a bank account of mine has been frozen for debt collection can you open a new account in a different state without it being frozen?
Typically any bank account you open will have your social security number on it, which is how your debts are listed, which is how any new account you open will be frozen also. It doesn't matter where you are (at least in the US), it will happen, especially if it is a debt to the IRS. You may want to talk to an attorney if you need to open an account.
Does the IRS track wire transfers?
No. The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) does not and cannot track wire transfers. The BSA (Banking Secrecy Act) forbids it from doing so. However, the IRS can, via a court order subpoena a bank account's details and/or put a monitor on it for account activity, which will naturally then also detect all wire transfers made in and out of this account under monitor. The IRS can (as we all know) again with proper authorisation, freeze a bank account.
Do banks notify the IRS when you open an account?
Yes, they do.
Can the IRS levy a bank account without a court order?
Yes
Can an American open an account through RBS online?

How much money can you keep in your bank account without the IRS taking it for unpaid taxes?
The IRS can take a dollar if they feel like it if you have unpaid taxes...and they can do it without notice. Well, they do have to give you notice. The IRS is required to send Letter 1058 to you, which will be titled "Final Notice of Intent to Levy and Notice of Your Right to a Hearing" before they can levy a bank account. You have 30 days from the date of this letter to make arrangments with the IRS. If after 30 days you have not made arrangments, and did not file for an Appeal Hearing (there will be instructions on Form 1058 on how to file the Appeal) the IRS can levy your bank account. Even if it only has $1.00 in it. The IRS has no way of knowing how much money you have in the bank. What they are going to do is look at what has been reported to them in the past to determine where you have open bank accounts. If you had interest reported to you from a bank last year, that tells them that you probably have a savings account there. That's where they will send a levy. If you have not had any interest reported to you from the bank that you currently have an account at, it is likely that the IRS has no idea where you are banking. They do not issue levies randomly to banks. If they cannot find a bank account, they will move on to your most recent W-2's to determine where you are working now and will likely proceed with a garnishment instead.
