When Can I File My Tax Return? The 2024 tax season officially opens Jan. 18. You can begin filing your 2023 return through IRS Free File before this date, but the IRS will not process them until later in the month. Paper tax returns may face additional delays. More than 90% of electronically filed tax refunds are processed and issued within 21 days.

The IRS processes tax returns as it receives them. If you file your tax return electronically, the IRS will generally process direct deposit refunds within 7-10 days of receiving your tax return, and process paper checks within about two weeks.

When Can I File My Tax Return? The 2024 tax season officially opens Jan. 18. More than 90% of tax refunds are processed and issued within 21 days.

In filing your federal tax return, you may have a few questions: How much tax will I pay? How much will I get back in my tax refund? When will I receive it?

There is no quick and easy answer to the first two questions. However, we can give you a rough idea of when you will receive your tax refund – but only if you file your federal taxes electronically using a software program or with the IRS e-File. Nine out of 10 taxpayers receive their tax refunds within 21 days when they file electronically.

Expect longer delays if you file your return on paper because it takes longer for the IRS to process your paperwork. The tax refund chart below the jump offers more information on when to expect tax refunds.

IRS Refund Schedule for Direct Deposits and Check Refunds

The following tax refund table is based on previous refund tables released by the IRS to help taxpayers know when they should receive their tax refunds. The IRS moved to the Modernized e-File System (MEF) in 2013 (2012 tax year). The IRS only issued refunds once per week under the old system. They now issue refunds every business day, Monday through Friday (except holidays).

Due to changes in the IRS auditing system, they no longer release a full schedule as they did in previous years. The following chart is based on IRS statements, published guidelines and estimates from past years. This IRS refund schedule should only be used as a rough guideline.

How to use the tax refund chart:

  • Use the left-hand column to look up the date your tax return was accepted by the IRS
  • Use the middle or right column to look up when you should receive your refund (depending on how you requested your refund – direct deposit or paper check).

If you filed your taxes with e-File, you should receive a confirmation that the IRS accepted your federal tax return. This date will go in the left column. If you didn’t file your taxes electronically, then this chart may not be useful for you for two reasons: you won’t have a confirmation date regarding when your tax return was accepted, and paper tax returns are manually entered by IRS employees, so the process takes longer.

You will also note that this chart covers dates beyond the traditional filing date. If you file after April 15, 2024, you should file a tax extension request. It’s simple to do and can potentially save you a lot of money in penalties.

Note: Military members deployed during the tax year may be eligible for additional tax deadline extensions.

2024 Tax Refund Schedule (2023 Tax Year)

Note: The IRS e-File open date is Jan. 18, 2024. The IRS will begin accepting and processing returns Jan. 23, 2024.

We are currently working on updating our chart for 2024. It will be posted soon. The following information is for 2023 (2022 Tax Year).

When Will My Refund Be Available?

Keep in mind that it may take a few days for your financial institution to make your deposit available to you or several days for the check to arrive in the mail. Keep this in mind when planning to use your tax refund.

The IRS states to allow five additional days for the funds to become available to you. In almost all cases, a direct deposit will get you your tax refund faster than in five days, and in some cases, it will be available immediately.

Important Tax Filing Dates and Refund Dates

When can I file my tax return?

The first official day to file your 2022 tax return is Jan. 23, 2023. However, many tax software programs will allow you to complete your return and “file” it before that date, including IRS Free File, which opens Jan. 13. They will then hold the returns until the IRS begins accepting them.

Some taxpayers who submit their electronic tax returns early may be able to participate in the IRS HUB Testing program. This is a controlled testing of the federal tax return system. The IRS processes a small percentage of tax returns from major software providers to test the tax return submission process and allow for fixing bugs before opening the doors to all taxpayers.

When are taxes due?

Last year was another unusual year for taxes, with the IRS automatically extending the tax filing deadline and the date federal income tax payments were due. There has been no such announcement this year.

The tax filing deadline for most individuals and businesses for the 2022 tax year is April 18, 2023.*

April 15 is the tax deadline for most years unless it falls on a weekend or an observed holiday. April 16th is the observed holiday for Emancipation Day in Washington DC, which may impact the tax-filing deadline in some years. In 2023, April 16 falls on a Sunday, and Emancipation Day will be observed on Friday, April 14.

* Notes:

  • Because Maine and Massachusetts celebrate Patriots Day on April 18, the tax-filing deadline for residents may be extended.

You can file a tax extension if you are not ready to file your taxes by the deadline. This year, the tax deadline when you file an extension is Oct. 18; however, any federal income tax payments are due by the original tax-filing deadline. It is recommended to make an estimated tax payment before the tax deadline if you believe you will owe federal taxes.

How long does it take to receive my tax refund?

Approximately 90% of taxpayers will receive their refunds in less than 21 days from the day the IRS accepts their tax returns. Most people receive their refunds in an average of 10-14 days.

Your bank will usually make your payment available within one to three days of receiving the payment from the IRS. Checks may take longer to clear your bank.

Are there any expected tax refund delays?

Yes, tax refund delays are common. The IRS is required by federal law to withhold tax refunds for taxpayers who claim Earned Income Tax Credits and Additional Child Tax Credit until at least Feb. 15, 2023. Keep in mind that receiving your refund can still take a week after the IRS releases it. So some people who file early may experience delays while awaiting their refunds. Refunds should be processed normally after this date.

Also note that new identity theft protections and anti-fraud measures may hold up some refunds, as some federal tax returns may be held for further review.

How Should You Request to Receive Your Refund?

The IRS gives you three options for receiving your refund:

  • Direct deposit (you can split your refund and have it sent to up to three banks)
  • Paper check (sent to your home)
  • Deposit into U.S. Savings Bonds

You can also apply a refund to any future taxes owed. This is a popular choice among some small business owners who are required to pay estimated taxes.

Of the three refund options available to you, direct deposit is the fastest and safest option. You can receive your refund via an ACH bank transaction in as little as a few days. Paper checks, however, can take over a week to process, several days to travel via the postal system, and several days to clear your bank.

*Note: Some tax software companies also offer the option of receiving a tax refund on a prepaid debit card. I’m not particularly fond of this option, but it is available to some tax filers. In this case, the refund is first sent to the tax preparation company. Then they issue you the prepaid debit card.

Tax Refund Schedule for Extensions and Amended Tax Returns

The refund schedule should be the same if you filed for a tax extension; however, there is no official schedule for tax refunds for amended tax returns. The above list only includes dates for e-filing an original tax return. Amended tax returns are processed manually and often take eight-12 weeks to process. If you do not receive an amended tax return refund within eight weeks of filing it, you should contact the IRS to check the status.

How to Check the Status of Your Tax Return

You should be able to check the IRS tax refund status roughly 24 hours after you receive confirmation from the IRS that they have received your tax refund via e-File. You will need to wait at least four weeks if you mail in your tax return.

The best way to check the status of your federal tax refund is to visit the Where’s My Refund page at the IRS website.

What you will need:

  • Social Security number
  • Filing Status
  • Exact refund amount

You can also call the IRS at 1-800-829-1954 or 1-800-829-4477 or 1-800-829-1040 and inquire about your tax return status with an IRS customer service representative. Note that the IRS only updates tax return statuses once a day during the week, usually between midnight and 6 a.m. They do not update the status more than once a day, so checking throughout the day will not give you a different result.

Should I call the IRS to check my federal tax refund status?

The IRS has stated you should only call them if it has been:

  • 21 days or more since you e-filed
  • Six weeks or more since you mailed your return, or when
  • “Where’s My Refund” tells you to contact the IRS

Get a Larger Tax Refund Next Year

If you want a bigger tax refund next year, then there are a few ways you can increase the amount of money the government will give you as a tax refund. One of the easiest ways is by contributing to a tax-deferred retirement plan such as a 401(k), the Thrift Savings Plan, or by opening a Traditional IRA, which allows you to deduct up to an additional $5,500 on your taxes each year (up to $6,500 if you are age 50 or older). You can open an IRA in a variety of locations, including banks, brokerage firms, independent advisors, and more.

Getting Tax Relief if You Owe Money

If you go through the tax filing process and come out owing the government money, there are options for getting tax relief. You can negotiate directly with the IRS and state revenue agencies or hire a tax relief company to negotiate on your behalf.

If you owe less than $10,000 and your case is not complicated, you may be better off dealing directly with the IRS. Otherwise, tax relief experts such as tax attorneys and enrolled agents can save you time and improve your chances of negotiating generous terms on your tax settlement.

Some of the top companies to help with getting relief for taxes owed are:

2020 Tax Refund Schedule (2019 Tax Year)

The IRS e-File open date was scheduled for Jan. 21, 2020.The pandemic in 2020 caused the IRS to extend the 2019 tax-filing deadline from April 15, 2020 to July 15, 2020. Taxpayers were also able to defer federal income tax payments due on April 15, 2020 to July 15, 2020, without penalties and interest, regardless of the amount owed. This deferment applies to all taxpayers, including individuals, trusts and estates, corporations and other non-corporate tax filers as well as those who pay self-employment tax. The IRS urges taxpayers who are due a refund to file as soon as possible. Most tax refunds are still being issued within 21 days. More info.

    The 2022 table is inaccurate. I filed on February 3rd. I just received notification today, February 19th, that my refund will be direct deposited by Thursday, February 24th.

      Hey Shelly! The IRS doesn’t publish tax refund charts anymore, so the dates in our charts are estimates based on previous IRS tax refund schedules. You may get your refund earlier or later than the estimated date, based on the auditing process and the complexity of your tax return.

      Thanks!

    I think this article is a complete lie, I filed in 2020 it took 6 months for a return. Here it is 2021 I filed in March and as of Aug 11, 2021 no response, no refund, and the government claims they want to aid the public through these troubling times but all of it is a lie. Hopefully you didn’t need your refund for you to make it another month.

      I filed April 5th and I still haven’t received my refund either. Very frustrating as we all need our money! I’ve tried to call but all you get is automated system and I’ve tried all sorts of numbers and tricks to get through and nothing works I check on my “where’s my refund” every day and nothing. It just says “being processed”. I asked my Tax Pro and she couldn’t get an answer either.
      Yet, if you owe money I bet they would be right on top of that!!!!!

    I filed my taxes. They were accepted, and prepared. I was given an April 26th anticipation date to have it direct deposited into my bank account. I haven’t received anything in my bank account yet. When they give you an anticipated refund date, shouldn’t it be deposited into your bank account on that date.

    I filed electronically on February 13th as Head of Household with one dependent. It was accepted two days later. However, it’s April 22nd and it is still showing as in processing. I also have not received my 3rd stimulus payment, same status essentially. Every time I have called, it says due to call volume they cannot take calls. Frustrating, I am not sure what I can do but wait really…

      Eddie Gonzalez, I am still not received any payments from the government stimulus payments or tax return we really wonder what’s going on, why I still haven’t received any answers or any questions? If something is wrong, I really would like some answers as soon as possible. But no telephone, and when they do, they don’t give you an answer. It’s in processing, that’s all I get. How long do you take to process, it’s been two and a half months? I am homeless already and need some assistance as soon as possible.

    I e-filed my taxes on the 2nd of March, it was accepted shortly after, it is now April 16th and the bar that’s usually there is gone and it just says that it is still being processed. I thought I was the only one going through this but as I was reading the comments I see that I am not. I have tried to call but can never get through to a person just the automated system. I understand a slight delay but this is frustrating.

    I filed electronically, Feb 17th, and it was accepted. As of 4/15 I still have not gotten my refund direct deposited. I got my refund from the state in 5 days. I have NEVER waited this long for a federal refund to be direct deposited. It usually comes within 7 days. All the website says is that it is being processed. 8 WEEKS!!!

    Hello. My accountant filed my electronic tax return on Saturday, March 27, 2021 but I have not received my direct deposit electronically as of April 14 today. It says on the app that the IRS has received my return, but nothing else. Doesn’t this seem longer than usual for direct deposit refund to be sent? I received my state refund within days of March 27, in the middle of the next week.

    Reply

  22. Jo says

    We filed on March 3, 2021, but the website and app weren’t working at the time and when everything came back up, it’s useless. We get a single sentence “it’s processing and a date will be are available to you soon”. The entire ‘received, accepted, paid’ bar has disappeared from the website and we have no idea when (or if) it was accepted. It’s been like that for weeks. My husband was out of work all last year (without unemployment benefits) and we’ve got five kids. We need our tax return but with the changes to the new credits, I fear it’ll never come. How are these changes impacting returns that were filed and received but still processing at the time of the change?

It keeps showing my returns accepted but refund not approved or sent, and yet my credit union shows the refund pending for deposit on 2/24. Wanted to give folks a heads up in case the refund tool info is not accurate, check with your direct deposit account.

    So, I filed my taxes 4/20, on 4/24 they got accepted. Yesterday 5/1 it says approved, but hasnt done the last step which is sent. I used turbo tax again this year and used my taxes to pay the fee, so my understanding is that the IRS sends my taxes to turbo tax and they take out the fee and then finally they sent it to me direct deposit. Has anyone done it that way? If so, how long did it take for your taxes to go from the IRS to turbotax, back to your direct deposit?

    Next time I’m not going to take the fee out of my taxes, I feel like it made things longer. My mom got her taxes back after filing after 10 days and she had more complicated taxes than myself. Hmmm.

    Anyones input would be great.

    Thanks, Beth

    I have never, repeat, never had to wait this long to receive my tax return. I have been waiting now for six weeks. This is ridiculous and irresponsible!. On Monday, April 27th I will be filing complaints with both my Senator and Congress Rep requesting that there be an oversight investigation of why the IRS’s tax division is not providing tax payers with their tax refunds. After a month and a half of waiting , it is simply scandalous! I am 78 years on a fixed income and I need that money to pay my bills.. SCANDALOUS!!!.

    I filed my taxes on February 12 and my funds are scheduled to be DD tomorrow hopefully. Citibank accepts DD between 12am – 7am. I guess it depends on your bank.

      This is the status I’m getting. We filed March 3, 2021 and the website and app were busted and when they came back up, this is all I get. It’s been more than a month since we e-filed with DD and no money. We don’t get state taxes in Texas, so it’s extremely frustrating when my husband has been out of work for the last year and we’ve got five kids. No answers and we need that money.

    I filed mine on 1/13/20, they were accepted 1/27/20 so I too was expecting a refund by 2/17 given the 21 day window they provided. After digging and digging, I figured out there’s an exception to the about statement. If you DO have the Earned Income Credit or the Additional Child Tax Credit it’s UP TO 21 days from the day they accepted those, which would be 2/15/20, putting the 21 day mark at 3/7/20. Not saying it will come that late but technically that’s within the 21 day grace period they advised of. Just thought I’d share this tidbit of info.

If we get in March, that means we would’ve waited almost 2 months to get our refund. Hopefully I get a date by at least Saturday. I’ll keep you updated.

He also said that they won’t be sending out the first “wave” of deposits (for the early filers) until the first week of March. I filed on the 13th of January, it was accepted on the 27th of January. I was received and being processed on the 16th of February.

    Just a heads up, as for the date that says people who filed between Feb 3 – 9th should expect their returns on February 17th, I am pretty sure that will NOT happen. February 17th is Presidents day.

    Reply

  108. Troy Niehus says

    Earned income credit and additional child tax credit can’t start being processed until Feb 15th! Also you can file taxes early but they didn’t start accepting tax returns until January 25-27th which means even if you filed tax return early you won’t be able to get refund until they start processing them. Early filers that did it early and have no earned income or additional child tax credits should be getting refunds now or very soon. I filed mine and was accepted on Feb 9th shows they got them so I assume now that they can start processing tomorrow I expect refund by end of next week or no later than end of month! I’m in Wisconsin and we get homestead credit for rent and for taxes I did that and was accepted but I’m sure that will be near end of Month before I receive them also. I’m just putting it in savings anyway.

      Well I don’t know anything about eitc but they say that you should expect your refund 21 days (give or take a few) after your refund has been accepted. If you refund was accepted on Jan 27th 21 days from then is Feb 17th, BUT that’s Presidents day so it’ll more than likely be the 18th IF there are not any delays.

    The list states the IRS deposits on Monday’s, but I don’t know of anyone who’s received their refund on a Monday.

    I filed an extension and filed taxes on 7/24 and thus should receive refund on 8/5, which has passed. However I have the standard bars and there’s no errors, just the standard Topic 152 comment. I’m assuming I’ll receive this Friday but has anyone received the refund without ever actually getting a date? For those who are delayed, did your Where’s My Refund page change?

      I just went through this so I thought I would give you my experience. You probably won’t like my answer. But, it is what it is! So IRS will not tell you this until they have reached there max amount of time they have. Now and they won’t tell you this as if 2018 you will not get back taxes 3 years prior to 2019. I waited 4 months to get this answer after being told it was in proxy. Contacted attorneys tax advocates and all same answer new law does not refund past three years. I found this out the long and hard way. And I still feel like I’m ******* out of 2000$. And why did they even ask me to file gave me 4 dates of return and check being issued? It sucks but I don’t want you to expect something that might not be coming at all as I did.

We filed this year’s taxes on April 1st. Today’s date is July 17th and we still have no tax refund. I can’t go back in file 2014 cuz they stated in the letter they were holding it holding our 2019 tax refund until we submitted our 2014 return.

    So update on what my problem was. My income was not reported to the social security office and made it look like I did not really work so that is what initially put me into a review.

Hang in there everyone.

    I mailed my return in sometime early April. Because I was a previous ID theft person I need to send in my W2 but forgot. I got the letter explaining what I needed to do and they received my return again on the 1st of May. Just today it was approved and should receive by the 5th.

    I am ok with the extra time to make sure that I am the only one filing this return.

    Some cases here are very unfortunate and I hope you receive your taxes ASAP but let them do their due diligence. This is our only defense against tax fraud as they won’t catch any of them unless they are dumb as rocks.

    Of course it would be nice if there was a bit more access and info from their system and a better way to contact with them about individual cases, but can you imagine every slack jawed yokel in their recliner that they made to look like the game of thrones chair from tinfoil calling you every day asking “where’s muh money, Bro Namath?”
    Nobody would get anything done.

    I hope everyone gets there money ASAP myself included. Good luck all

    I called them but was told it will take up to 9 weeks to get my check which does not make sense.
    The postal system here is quite efficient and I should receive it some time ago.

I had to call the irs and give them the code and they sent me a letter and once I got the letter I could do it online or over the phone. I did over the phone but didn’t have enough info so I had to go in. My appt took 15 minutes.

        So I finally received my letter yesterday but a rep had already informed me of what I needed to send in last week. I called today to make sure it has been received and to see how long it will take from here. They said to allow 6 to 8 wks for my return to finish being processed. I’m hoping it doesn’t take that long. Has anyone received their return sooner that needed to fax in additional information?

    I filed mine electronically on the 7th of febuary. Didn’t get it in the normal 21 day time frame. Talked to someone at the IRS who told me it is being delayed because I claimed the child tax and earned income tax credit. Now I have to wait until they process it since their has been fraud claiming both of these. She told me a letter would be sent with instructions on what they need. She told me the letter would be mailed within a week but I am still waiting for it. How long will all this take before I get my refund? This is the first time it has ever been late. Has anyone else been through this? If so what is the soonest timeframe? Are we talking weeks or monthes?I need this money by August 1st.

    Uhhggg … the bottomline here is that the federal bohemoth is predicably inefficient and woefully incapable of conceiving a simple means by which folks can track the progress of their return/refund. The IRS squanders our money hosting lavish ’employee appreciation’ conventions in swank venues, squanders money on lame low budget employee training videos with a stupid Star Trek theme, they pay each other ridiculous bonuses (for doing nothing) on top of their cush taxpayer provided federal employee benefits packages, and yet we have to deal with a stupid Where’s My Refund app that only updates once a day with esoteric info requiring most of us to read tea leaves just to know WTF our refunds are!

    As much as i’ve visited this page in the last month, the least i can do is recap my journey for others that need as much info as possible:

    – Filed electronically using Drake Software (yes, that is the name) on January 28, filed single with no dependents and selected the direct deposit option of payment
    – Federal and state accepted early morning on January 29
    – State tax refund deposited on February 5 (California)
    – Bars disappeared around February 5, replaced only with the “Still Processing” message
    – Received Identity Verification letter on February 23, there was no indication of this on WMR however. Remained “Still Processing”
    – Verified identity via phone call on February 28, was told by IRS agent that processing will now continue and to follow up in 9 weeks if no refund had been received
    – WMR status changed back to “Received and Processing” message on March 4
    – Refund approved early morning March 9 with a DDD of March 13
    – Refund appeared in Citibank account at 1am on March 13. WMR still shows “Refund Approved”. I am not sure if WMR actually displays when Refund Sent (the last bar) but it is still on the Approved message as of 4pm PST

    I hope I was as descriptive as possible, I was in your shoes for 6 painful weeks and i definitely know the feeling of waiting around for some evidence of progress. I will still check in periodically to answer any questions you may have to ease your mind through this process. Peace and love to you all.

    Filed mine electronically through Tax Slayer on Feb 24th – IRS accepted it on the 24th at 11:54 (time of Tax Slayer’s notification). I have a bar (it’s blue) and it shows return received (dark blue) with refund approved and refund sent parts still grayed out. At the bottom it shows ‘Tax topic 152, refund information.’ According to the chart above, March 12th was my approximate DD day. What does a ‘warm bar mean?’ Does a blue bar mean I’m good to go?

    If they say 03-13-19 that’s when your refund will be delivered or deposit into your account. Either midnight or tomorrow. When it has been approved look on the left hand corner at the bottom, it should say deposit March 13, 2019

    I filed 02-15-19 my refund was accepted that same day 02-15-19. It says “Received” in the warm status. On the 02-27-19 my warm bar disappeared my message was “Refund is still processing a refund date will be available” March 6th I called IRS 800 829-0922 the IRS agent told me sorry about The delays. She told me they’re processing my refund. She said they’re trying very hard to process peoples refunds ASAP!! For March. March the 8th at 11pm my warm bars came back on. Now it said refund date is 03-13-19 deposit into your account. It should be credit into your account 03-13-19 no later than 03-18-19.
    If you have Credit Union it only takes three days I just look at my account today 03-12-19 its there on hold to be released. It will release at 5pm today
    If you have a regular bank like “Wells Fargo or Chase or Bank of America or any other banks it takes 7days it will be deposit that same day or on the 03-18-19. Credit Unions is a lil faster than Regular banks when it comes to direct deposit.
    Some does. Majority credit unions is a lil faster than regular banks. If you are over 21 days I will give IRS a call so you can see what is going on with your refund. My days make 21 day. March 7th made 21 days. March 8th when they gave me my Direct Deposit Date 03-13-19. This whole thing can be overwhelming.. cause these peoples in the USA need there tax refunds to catch up on their bills.. especially if some people had been affective through that shut down. I hope everybody gets there refunds ASAP!! Because IRS really don’t know what peoples are going through financially!!! I’m so sorry if peoples been filed before. Especially since January 2019 and the 1st week of February and did not received no refund or DDD dates as well.. some people have gotten there refunds before me and after me. I hope everybody or everyone gets their refunds..

      I filed the 1st of March and both my state and federal was accepted the same day. On the 9th of March it went from accepted to approved with a direct deposit date on the 13th of March. Woke up this morning and it was in my account. I claimed the EIC as well. So it took exactly 12 days for me to get my refund back. 1-800-304-3107 is a great number to call to see if you have a tax offset and from whom. But this only works if you don’t owe the IRS directly, but if you know you have student loans, child support, etc. this will let you know from whom and how much. I hoped this helped you guys!

      Yeah, I filed on Feb 11 the taxes were accepted on the 13. I figured I would have my refund around March 1st. Well, I was wrong around the end of February, my bars disappeared. I checked every day nervous that something was wrong. Tried to call the IRS on March 13th and couldn’t get anyone on the phone the wait times were outrageous. Finally on March 16th my bars reappeared and I now had an expected date of refund. Only because I am in desperate need of my refund was it later than it should have been. Just my luck but at least it’s on it’s way and I will hopefully have it in the next few days barring no other problems or obstacles.

      I just got mine approved on the warm status Yesterday my refund will be deposit into my account 03-13-19 no later than the 03-19-19
      I filed on 02-15-19 been accepted that same day on the 02-15-19. So al that time from the 02-15-19 was on the warm status “Recieve” They started processing my refund on 02-27-19. So count the day they started processing my refund and now they approve it on the warm red bar status. So from the 02-27-19 to 03-13-19. So the IRS never reviewed the day it has been accepted. Until 02-27-19. That’s the day they release refunds. So to say this I don’t know if IRS works different in different states. I’m in Florida. I spoke to a live IRS agent on the 03-06-19 and she told they were processing my refund sorry about the delays. She told me that they’re trying very hard to process refunds in March 2019 and to be released ASAP! If you don’t get a refund in March you maybe still under a review. She were accurate with mine. When I went back to check on where is my refund on 03-08-19 at 11pm the status change. My warmer bars came back on the display saying “Approved” and refund deposit 03-13-19 . Before that, it use to say on the 02-27-19 still processing and give a date when available. Now it has been approved. I hope this will ease some of you taxpayers mind. Here’s the # 800 829-0922 I spoke with the IRS agent you will not wait for a long time either. Either call before 10am or call after 6pm that way you won’t be waiting for a long time. I hope this message will help.

    I believe this is just a way not to pay us our taxes back because never in my 20+ years of filing has there been a problem like this but the man in the white house never has paid taxes or gave them to the government so they need to be held accountable for keeping my refund over 60 days. Who is over the IRS? Does anybody know? It is my second review and I want my money. This is why we should not be paying taxes because we can’t get our money on time. Last year it was an upgrade this year it is because we have kids like where is our $$$$$?

    I filed on 2-15-19 been accepted that same day 2-15-19. Our per conversation she told me that they had started processing my refund 2-27-19. So she told me to count the day they start processing the refund. Give it to 21 days. So that will be 2-27-19 that they had start processing my refund. That if you files EIC and ACTC or baby tax credit Lol.. so IRS agent told me I should receive my refund between 3-14-19 or 3-20-19 around those dates. Plus IRS agent told me sometimes the refund can be deposit into your account without a date. So apparently you should check your bank accounts every day anyway.. even if they didn’t put a DDD in the system.. I had a good genuine IRS agent I spoke with. This is the number 800 829-0922 I spoke with a live agent it only took 20 minutes for a agent to come on the phone. I didn’t have to wait for a long time.
    IRS agent gave me actual date when will you should receive your refunds. Plus IRS agent said to me that they’re working on those refunds as soon as possible. I ask her will I wait 45 days. She said NO!! It will be in peoples deposit ASAP!! Start of MARCH 2019. I hope this will ease some peoples minds.

      Not all your information is accurate. I live in California and I received my refund at midnight on February 27th. I also claimed EITC. Each Irs agent doesnt state the same thing some are just as confused. However most of the information they have given me has been 90% accurate and itsc ??v. accurate information from the date it states meaning February 27th for those who claim eitc thats the earliest date they will start sending refunds for those in particular. But some people who didnt claim eitc gave received checks earlier then February.

    I filed 2/3(filed kids) And within 48hrs my refund was received. Then days later lost the color bar and said ‘your refund is still being processed a date will be provided when available. Stayed that way up until this morning(around 7ish) it went back to the colored bars and said approved. My refund date is 3/11 hoping to see it on or b4 that day!

        Yes!!! I called the bank this morning turns out my refund was deposited into my daughter’s account on the 7th!! I don’t kno why exactly but if you have a shared or multiple accounts check them because it could have gone there. According to the irs status bars it was “sent to the bank on the 11th” but have been deposited the same day I made this. Good luck y’all I hope everyone gets theirs asap!

    yes, this happend to me too. tax still being processed and bars disapeared with code 152 for almost 10 days. I found out that, I had a error in my income tax because IRS sent me a letter requesting information of my 1095-A 3 days ago which I sent it back same day that arrived the letter.

    I filed On Jan 31st.. I contacted The IRS on Feb 28th After I was told to wait after the 27th due to the Child Tax Credit…. So I called and the agent said she could not find my File for 2018…. She put in a request for A Tech to call me back but it would take up to 30 days for a return call.

    The IRS App statues showed up as accepted at First but now the Bars are gone and the Statues shows as” Processing.” And A Date will be provided. How does there website show as accepted and or processing but the agent could not find my file!?

    Any ways I did receive my state Check DD 2 weeks after Filing with no problem

    NOT Sure Why it is taking them so long. I hope we can get our Money soon.

    So my spouse filed my taxes February 11th for me and missed a number on my direct deposit. This ****** me off because I’m moving to a different state this month. So the IRS told me that my checked should be mailed by March 5, which is today. The only thing I’m concerned about is how accurate that date is. I’m really not trying to leave my check in the hands of the man I’m divorcing smh.

    My bars disappeared today an i E-filed the 14th, accepted the 14th, I got my state today, however nothing on my federal, just the same old being processed crap, I wonder if those who was suppose to get theirs the 27th have gotten theirs yet? Beings how they said it was supposed to be fixed on the 4th or something like that…. this hole tax year experience has been terrible, alot of waiting an anticipation, an not knowing bcuz the government is doing such a poor job at keeping us updated about the issues their having with OUR money, as well as all these new reviews, like how long dose this really take, they need to have a time limit put in play, bcuz ppl count on this money, but yeah this is getting ta be beyond ridiculous, has anyone that has a ddd of the 6th received their refund yet? Is their supposed ta be another update done on this system or sumthing beings how I’ve red abt glitches an all kind of crazy crap. So many questions I need answers too, point blank what I’m getting at is where is our money, this is crazy!!!

      I have the exact same file date and acceptance date they just approved it over the weekend and says should be sent to bank by 3/6 but if it’s not there by 3/11 to call them I had the EITC & the ACTC, so I know that’s why it took so freaking long but I’m meticulous cause I accidentally put my domestic partners account info in and even tho Walmart money card reps said should be fine everything in reading online is a contradiction of that? Did anyone know of it will go through idk why a two would say yes if it won’t, plus I have had like 20 plus paychecks go into it so idk just freaking out.. Any ones advice would help!

    So I feel like the IRS is playing in my face. I Filed Jan 26th, got accepted for both Jan 28th ( When they started taking them!) I already knew my state was being taken for tickets, they took the full amount. But my fed was approved, and amount was approved right?! So they gave me a date and stated that my refund would be sent to my bank 2/27. like everybody else wondering like where is the refund come 2/27. So they gave a new date which was today right? so I log on to IRS wheres my refund and GUESS what, They told me my WHOLE refund that was APPROVED and sent to my bank, is now being used towards a debt! HOW?! I called them when this delay started happening and they said I didn’t owe a debt! so I honestly don’t know what is going on but IM BEYOND FED UP!!!

      Yes. Because of the EIC, no refunds were processed until on or after 2/26. The graph displayed 3/12 for direct deposit and 3/15 for paper. Now mine did change to saying delayed last week but it has now gone back to processing again. Sad but beyond our control unfortunately.

    These peoples have dates when there money will be deposit. DD 02/27/19 remember it takes 5 days. The 27th and the 28th is the end of the month. It should be in their accounts either Monday or Tuesday no later than Wednesday of March 5,6 are these the beginning of file taxes from Jan 29th to February 15, 2019? For EIC and ACTC? If you have Credit Union deposits it should get there faster in 3 days or less . If you with Regular Bank far as Wells Fargo and Chase and Bank of America and other Banks it will take up to 5 to 7 days to be deposit.

    We filed feb3 , accepted the 4th. Bars disappeared around mid Feb , finally got ahold of someone at Irs and they said under review , probably just a random review , and that a letter was sent out .

    I filed my taxes February 13th and they were accepted. I received my State Offset Notice in the mail already from February 20th because they always take my state taxes. My taxes have yet to be approved and the IRS2GO app has the message about Child Tax Credit and Earned Income still and refunds starting to go out February 27th. Does anybody have any idea why I received my Offset Notice if my taxes haven’t even been approved yet? Also, does anybody have any idea when taxes will be sent out to bank accounts if I’m not under review as far as I know?

    That one statement is not true if you filed between Feb 1st thru the 10th that your under review..wmr website has a glitch in it on the schedule when you should have received by 27th you will get them on the 4th …they are trying to get it fixed…and they also said that wasn’t the only issue with their site… Hang in there everyone trust me I do not trust this government at all but this is probably true due to so many not getting it when it said…

It had a flag on mine that said there was a delay in my return. I called they said a letter was being sent out but they could not tell what for…I checked again today just in case and now its saying my return is being processed…anybody else went through or going through this? Never received a date and people who filed after me literally two weeks ago already received theirs.
