No, it was not in my IRA account but maybe I need to clarify things: > ...
But my check from the same source *WAS* due to the Enron stock becoming worthless in my IRA in 2001. I spoke with Vanguard (holding the traditional IRA) and they told me to send them the check (not endorsing it, as it was made out to 'Andrew IRA, c/o Vanguard Fiduciary Trust Company' along with the paperwork received so that they realize to treat it essentially as a rollover, and not as a contribution.
Sound right?
