If you recently submitted your tax return and are still awaiting your refund, check the status on the IRS's "Where's My Refund?" website. The website updates within 48 hours of electronic filing.
Suppose you have recently submitted your tax return and are wondering why you have not yet gotten your refund. In that case, you can usually check the progress of your refund on the Internal Revenue Service's "Where's My Refund?" website within 48 hours after electronically completing your tax return. This application also enables you to retrieve refund information for the present and two preceding years.
"Taxpayers don't need to check their refund status more than once a day. The IRS updates Where's My Refund overnight in most cases. Calling the IRS won't speed up a tax refund. The information available on Where's My Refund is the same information available to IRS telephone assistors. Taxpayers should allow time for their bank or credit union to post the refund to their account or for it to arrive in the mail,” the official IRS website read.
Typically, the IRS indicated that it requires a maximum of 21 days to process an electronically submitted tax return and a minimum of four weeks for returns sent by mail or modified.
Which is the fastest way to track your refund?
Nevertheless, various factors can contribute to delays in processing your reimbursement. Frequent problems encompass inaccuracies on your tax return, necessitating further scrutiny, rectifications, or supplementary documentation.
In an interview with NBC New York, Alejandra Castro, a representative for the IRS, stated that going to an IRS support center does not expedite the refund process.
Alternatively, the most expeditious method of obtaining information and monitoring the progress of your return is to utilize the IRS2GO application or access the "Where's My Refund?" feature on the official IRS website.
"Visiting a taxpayer assistance center does not speed up your refund. However, if a taxpayer has any doubts about where their tax return is in the process, if it's been a long time that it seems to the taxpayer that something could be wrong, then they definitely should call the IRS or set up an appointment to go to one of the taxpayer assistance centers,” Alejandra stated.
