A while back I asked what to do if I forgot to sign a check to the IRS. I was
told that it probably would be honored anyway. That was correct. On my unsigned
check was stamped: Kindly Refer to
Drawer for Signature

Good thing you signed your tax return, or that probably would have been
sent to you and treated as not filed.

Actually, it seems the IRS has a streamlined procedure for handling
this. A couple of years ago I sent in an unsigned return. This was
accepted (it was a payment due return), and in a couple weeks I just
got a letter that described the return and just asked for a signature
on the letter verifying the correctness of the return. The return
itself was not sent back, and as far as I could tell there was no
indication that the return was not considered as timely filed.

Interesting. The IRS sent mine back for signature this year.

Like most govt offices, it just depends on what what employee looks at
it, and what do they see; or not see.
But if one of my clients writes the wrong amount on that line and it's
not what's in the numeric box above and to the write on a check, all
tellers at my bank will catch it immediately.
Like the one lady who wrote in $100 correctly, but absentmindedly on the
next line wrote out "One and 00/100------"!
