We know you work hard for your money and wanted to answer some of the most common questions we see about the issuance of tax refunds. Here is a breakdown of how your tax return will progress through 3 stages with the IRS -“Return Received”, “Return Approved”, and “Refund Sent” once you e-file and where you can go to check your refund status so you understand “Where’s My Refund?”: Refund Process Start checking status 24 – 48 hours after e-file – Once you e-file with direct deposit, you can start checking the status of your return 24 – 48 hours after you e-file on the IRS Where’s My Refund tool. Return Received Notice within 24 – 48 hours after e-file – The IRS Where’s My Refund tool will show “Return Received” status once they begin processing your tax return. You will not see a refund date until the IRS finishes processing your tax return and approves your tax refund. Status change from “Return Received” to “Refund Approved” – Once the IRS finishes processing your tax return and confirms your tax refund is approved, your status will change from “Return Received” to “Refund Approved”. Sometimes the change in status can take a few days, but it could take longer and a date will not be provided in Where’s My Refund? until your tax return is processed and your tax refund is approved. Where’s My Refund? tool shows refund date – The IRS will provide an actual refund date once your status moves to “Refund Approved”. The IRS issues more than 9 out of 10 refunds in 21 days or less. Where’s My Refund? shows “Refund Sent” – You’re now closer to your biggest tax refund! If the status in Where’s My Refund? shows “Refund Sent”, the IRS has sent your tax refund to your financial institution for direct deposit. It can take 1 to 5 days for your financial institution to deposit funds into your account. If you requested that your tax refund be mailed, it could take several weeks for your check to arrive. Here are more answers to your common questions about your tax refund: Will I see a date right away when I check status in “Where’s My Refund”? Where’s My Refund will not give you a date until your tax return is received, processed, and your tax refund is approved by the IRS It’s been longer than 21 days since the IRS has received my tax return and I have not received my tax refund. What’s happening? Some tax returns take longer than others to process depending on your tax situation. Some of the reasons it may take longer are incomplete information, an error, or the IRS needs to review it further. What other sources can I use to check my refund status? Once you have e-filed your tax return with TurboTax, you can check your status using MyTurboTax. You can even check your status on the go from your mobile device using TurboTax free app MyTaxRefund. If you haven’t e-filed your taxes yet, you can start today. You may even be able to e-file your federal tax return for free and have your biggest tax refund in your pocket within 21 days.

Reply Anyone else who has a scheduled direct deposit of their refund on 2/12 receive an offset on their refund but both the FMS and the IRS say they can find no debts associated with my SS. Im supposed to get 7200 but they offset it by 2000. Reply Another filed on the 30th and accepted on the 31st. Still stuck on one bar. Reply My return was accept 2/2/14 right away within an hour and it has been in received first bar ever since? Whats taking so long? I e-filed with turbo tax. Reply Filed the 1/31 accepted 2/1 and no update on wmr . Still say processing. Whats really going on? Reply This question may have already been answered.. But I’m thinking there was a glitch or system error for us who was accepted on 1/30 & 1/31 because it seems like those dates are the ones having issues. Reply I was accepted on 1/30 and I have a ddd of 2/12 Reply have you gotten yours They didnt have a glitch this same thing happened to me last year i was lucky enough to do a phone interview last year and got it approved . This year not so lucky anyone claiming earned income credit over a certain amount needs reviewed it could take the full 21 or days to review then they have 6 weeks to either mail you a check or issue a deposit Reply Mine was received on 1/28 and I have not heard anything yet either. I was finally able to reach a live person at IRS yesterday and they said it had not been processed yet. Reply I called the IRS and was told they couldn’t give me ANY info until after 21 days. I’m not in no desperate need for the money at his particular moment but I’m just freaking out because it has never taken this long.. I’m worried something happened, the irs is always scary to me lol. Yea I know me to. I have never had a problem before and I have already gotten my state back last week. I usually get them back at the same time not use to the federal taking this long. Makes me nervous. I don’t like the way they are doing things this year. I don’t understand either.. The website updates at 12:00 but my time 11:00pm (central) if I’m awake, I’ll check it again. It’s nuts. And no one seems to want to help you., they won’t even take your SSN to check! I finally got through to someone yesterday that would check it for me but just said it had not been processed. I don’t know if I need to go with the date on the turbo tax website which is 2/20 or if it will eventually come in sooner on the WMR website. Just hate the waiting game. I’m not a patient person lol. It’s also for those accepted on 2/2. That’s when mine was and I’ve been sitting in process for days. Reply Im goin to the sb thing but its saying error no record of me But I have dd through Chase how can I check to see if its pending Reply I have a ddd of 2.12 to hope good news tommrow Reply Filed 2/3 and it barely shows that it has been received, how long have most taken to go from received to approved? Reply Hello just found the 21 days strt from the date yourfderal refund got accepted Reply I think the irs needs more employees! Reply Filed and accepted 1/31 still on one bar as of 5:40 pm central time. I hate tax time!!! Reply Me too….. Reply same here accepted 1/31 smh Just checked and my Ddd is now by Feb 14th, can’t log on to the Santa Barbara bank now though to see if they got the fees Reply So I Filed For My Taxes On 2/7/2014 It’s Been Several Days And It’s Still On The Same Bar. I Know My Situation Isn’t As Bad As Others On Here So I Don’t Wanna Here (Just Wait On It Or It Could Be Worst) The Reason I’m Writing On Here Is Because I Decided To Look At My Transcripts To See If I Could Order Them And While I Was Reading My Account And Record Transcript For 2013 And See A Message Stating “Return Due Date Or Return Receive Date (whichever is later) Processing Date March 3,2014 (refund Issued) & April 15, 2014 (received date) I’m Trying To Figure If Anyone On Here Would Mind Telling Me What These Dates Mean? Thank You In Advance Reply Hello everyone, Just reading some of the comments. I know how you feel. I have been waiting to. I was accepted on 1/30/14, approved on 2/8/2014. I now have a DDD for the 12th. I have checked the Santa Barbara Bank and it says they have received my refund and have taking out the TT fees, it also inform me that Santa Barbara Bank has sent my refund to my bank which is today 2/11/114. Hope this help! Reply I got my state today but still no word on the federal. Next week will be my 21 days… Reply last year I filed on the 19th and got my refund on the 31st. On the wmf it told me I was approve after I already got my return. I’m very impatient! Reply I got accepted on the 31st and I’m still at processing. ..I’m h.o.h. I wonder how many of you claimed head of household Reply I filed via TurboTax online at home on 1/24/14 and was accepted on 1/28/14. When I checked the IRS’s “where’s my refund” it showed the message “your tax refund will be sent to your bank before February 12, 2014”. I checked just a few minutes ago (4:31pm) and my refund is in my account and available for use (and some of it has already been spent LOL).My status bar still shows “refund accepted” even with me having my refund. I did file with TT but the previous 15 years were filed with H&R Block and I had this refund direct deposited to that card because it has been active for a year and I have a weekly direct deposit placed on it anyway. Reply My situation: I filed using TT free edition on January 16th. IRS received (accepted) my return on January 30th. Nothing has happened since then, 12 days later. I receive a single 1099-R for my state retirement pension and I have the standard deductions (If my 1099-R was a W-2, I could file 1040-EZ). I tried ordering transcripts but there was an asterisk (*) next to 2013. When I clicked on it, I got a letter that said they had no record that I filed a 2013 return. I went to TT and got into a chat with one of their representatives. Explained the above and then gave her my SSN so she could check the status. She said, “Ok i see here that it has been approved but it just hasn’t been processed yet. I said, “approved” or “accepted”? She said, “approved the information is correct and has been accepted by the irs it just has not been processed yet.” I would think TT would train their representatives to use “accepted” instead of “approved” and know the difference when it comes to IRS. So, I sit here not know why it’s taking so dang long to get my very simple return processed and approved. It’s not like I’m getting back big bucks! I’m only getting a little over $500 back! Reply I filed on 1/20 accepted 1/24 and stuck in processing ever since. No movement what so ever for almost 3 weeks Reply You are not alone..same exact thing to me! Reply people please stop,requesting transcripts it doesnt mean anything all you doing is making the process longer Reply « Older Comments Newer Comments » Leave a ReplyCancel reply Browse Related Articles Tax Refunds Where’s My Tax Refund?

I called the IRS and was told they couldn’t give me ANY info until after 21 days. I’m not in no desperate need for the money at his particular moment but I’m just freaking out because it has never taken this long.. I’m worried something happened, the irs is always scary to me lol.
Yea I know me to. I have never had a problem before and I have already gotten my state back last week. I usually get them back at the same time not use to the federal taking this long. Makes me nervous. I don’t like the way they are doing things this year.
I don’t understand either.. The website updates at 12:00 but my time 11:00pm (central) if I’m awake, I’ll check it again. It’s nuts. And no one seems to want to help you., they won’t even take your SSN to check!
I finally got through to someone yesterday that would check it for me but just said it had not been processed. I don’t know if I need to go with the date on the turbo tax website which is 2/20 or if it will eventually come in sooner on the WMR website. Just hate the waiting game. I’m not a patient person lol.
It’s also for those accepted on 2/2. That’s when mine was and I’ve been sitting in process for days. Reply
Im goin to the sb thing but its saying error no record of me But I have dd through Chase how can I check to see if its pending Reply
Filed 2/3 and it barely shows that it has been received, how long have most taken to go from received to approved? Reply
Just checked and my Ddd is now by Feb 14th, can’t log on to the Santa Barbara bank now though to see if they got the fees Reply
So I Filed For My Taxes On 2/7/2014 It’s Been Several Days And It’s Still On The Same Bar. I Know My Situation Isn’t As Bad As Others On Here So I Don’t Wanna Here (Just Wait On It Or It Could Be Worst) The Reason I’m Writing On Here Is Because I Decided To Look At My Transcripts To See If I Could Order Them And While I Was Reading My Account And Record Transcript For 2013 And See A Message Stating “Return Due Date Or Return Receive Date (whichever is later) Processing Date March 3,2014 (refund Issued) & April 15, 2014 (received date) I’m Trying To Figure If Anyone On Here Would Mind Telling Me What These Dates Mean? Thank You In Advance Reply
Hello everyone, Just reading some of the comments. I know how you feel. I have been waiting to. I was accepted on 1/30/14, approved on 2/8/2014. I now have a DDD for the 12th. I have checked the Santa Barbara Bank and it says they have received my refund and have taking out the TT fees, it also inform me that Santa Barbara Bank has sent my refund to my bank which is today 2/11/114. Hope this help! Reply
last year I filed on the 19th and got my refund on the 31st. On the wmf it told me I was approve after I already got my return. I’m very impatient! Reply
I got accepted on the 31st and I’m still at processing. ..I’m h.o.h. I wonder how many of you claimed head of household Reply
I filed via TurboTax online at home on 1/24/14 and was accepted on 1/28/14. When I checked the IRS’s “where’s my refund” it showed the message “your tax refund will be sent to your bank before February 12, 2014”. I checked just a few minutes ago (4:31pm) and my refund is in my account and available for use (and some of it has already been spent LOL).My status bar still shows “refund accepted” even with me having my refund. I did file with TT but the previous 15 years were filed with H&R Block and I had this refund direct deposited to that card because it has been active for a year and I have a weekly direct deposit placed on it anyway.

My situation: I filed using TT free edition on January 16th. IRS received (accepted) my return on January 30th. Nothing has happened since then, 12 days later. I receive a single 1099-R for my state retirement pension and I have the standard deductions (If my 1099-R was a W-2, I could file 1040-EZ). I tried ordering transcripts but there was an asterisk (*) next to 2013. When I clicked on it, I got a letter that said they had no record that I filed a 2013 return. I went to TT and got into a chat with one of their representatives. Explained the above and then gave her my SSN so she could check the status. She said, “Ok i see here that it has been approved but it just hasn’t been processed yet. I said, “approved” or “accepted”? She said, “approved the information is correct and has been accepted by the irs it just has not been processed yet.” I would think TT would train their representatives to use “accepted” instead of “approved” and know the difference when it comes to IRS. So, I sit here not know why it’s taking so dang long to get my very simple return processed and approved. It’s not like I’m getting back big bucks! I’m only getting a little over $500 back! Reply
I filed on 1/20 accepted 1/24 and stuck in processing ever since. No movement what so ever for almost 3 weeks Reply
people please stop,requesting transcripts it doesnt mean anything all you doing is making the process longer Reply
