Many years ago I filed corrected returns a couple of times and was paid interest on the refund dating from the original date due.

What you say is kind of hard to make any sense of. If the IRS "marks on its books" that one is due a refund, is there any reason that they would not then go ahead and issue the refund?

I am waiting to see if they have just stopped paying interest on refunds.

It used to be that some people would deliberately overpay and then wait before filing a corrected return, in order to make interest. Perhaps they stopped paying interest to stop this practice.
