PAUL, Minn., March 16 (UPI) -- The Minnesota Revenue Department said it is correcting the mistaken double-issuing 14,000 electronic tax refunds, using a third transaction to rescind payments. A department release, without mentioning any further details, said "human error" led to the mistake, the St. Paul Pioneer Press reported. Advertisement The refunds were deposited in taxpayers' bank accounts Friday and inadvertently re-issued Monday, the release said. After the department discovered the error it reversed the second payments. Affected taxpayers will see two identical refund deposits, with one of them reversed Tuesday, the newspaper said. "The department is investigating the cause of the error and has taken steps to ensure that it does not happen again," the release said.
