E-filed tax returns with direct deposit: E-file with direct deposit is the fastest way to get your federal tax refund. Typically, the IRS expects to issue most tax refunds within 21 days after acceptance if there are no issues. Mailed paper returns: Avoiding a paper return is more important than ever to avoid refund delays, if possible. The IRS cautions if you need your refund quickly do not file on paper. Usually, the IRS says to allow 4 weeks before checking the status of your refund, and that refund processing can take 6 to 8 weeks from the date the IRS receives your return. Tax Refund Processing Start checking status 24 – 48 hours after e-file: Once you have e-filed your tax return, you can check your status using the IRS Where’s My Refund? tool. You will need your Social security number or ITIN, your filing status, and your exact refund amount. 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 need the following information when checking refund status: Social security number or ITIN, your filing status, and your exact federal tax refund amount shown on the tax return. You will not see a tax 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.” The change in status can take a few days, and a tax refund 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 a personalized refund date once your status moves to “Refund Approved.” Where’s My Refund? shows “Refund Sent”: 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 opted to receive your tax refund via mail, it could take several weeks for your check to arrive. Track your refund in TurboTax You could experience delays in receiving your tax refund if your return: Includes errors – The IRS has indicated that your refund could be delayed if the information you provided on your tax return does not match the IRS records. Is incomplete – If you didn’t have all of your documents and filed an inaccurate return Needs further review in general Is affected by identity theft or fraud Includes Earned Income Tax Credit or an Additional Child Tax Credit – Under the Path Act, the IRS cannot issue a refund that includes the Earned Income Tax Credit or Additional Child Tax Credit before mid-February. Includes a Form 8379, Injured Spouse Allocation PDF, which could take up to 14 weeks to process Tax Refund Status FAQ Will I see a date right away when I check the status in “Where’s My Refund”? The IRS Where’s My Refund? tool will not give you a date until your tax return is received, and 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 include incomplete information, an error, or the IRS may need to review it further. I requested my money be automatically deposited into my bank account, but I was mailed a check. What happened? The IRS is limiting the number of direct deposits that go into a single bank account or prepaid debit card to three tax refunds per year. Your limit may have been exceeded. In addition, for a small number of returns, the IRS decides there may be indications that the bank account on the return is suspicious and they may decide to issue a check instead.

I have been with turbo tax for 5 years and have NEVER had to wait this long to get my refund back especially to get an approval status. I know there was a lot of IRS cut backs this year so that’s probaubly the reason for the delays, but come on someone from the IRS, or Turbo Tax which is what I used to E-file, should come out and give us some kind of insight of what is going on. Obviously there is something wrong it NEVER takes this long to get an approved status when u E-file your taxes. Reply I was disappointed that TurboTax failed to update my direct deposit information so now I have to wait for a paper check which can take weeks. This will make me rethink using it next year out of fear that the same thing will happen again 🙁 Reply Hi Summer, For your safety and security, we can not go in and update your information that you input and once you hit e-file your information is already sent electronically to the IRS.

Now I’m worried. I can’t find out anything. :/ Reply You Amy want to double check the program you used. There maybe something you have to fix. If your using turbo tax or tax act, its usually accepted within 6 hours. I filed mine on Friday, Jan 30. The first time o sent it through, I received a notice within 5 minutes saying it was rejected. They needed my IP pin. To be safe, sign in and double check. Or check your help email they’ll also send you an email stating it was rejected. Hope that helps you Reply I did mines on Jan 21 and it’s still saying being processed..gurr:( Reply Is anyone getting where’s my refund not available after you hit submit? I hope it’s just the site is down because I got accepted on the 23rd and approved yesterday with a dd date of the 4 th Reply I got accepted on the 23rd and approved yesterday.

You’ll get your this week Thursday or Friday. Yayyyy Reply My refund was accepted on jan.23rd and approved on jan.31st. Yesterday.

Is the where’s my refund. Like down right now or something? Reply The website goes down every night around 3am Reply You’ll receive it Friday Feb. 5th or 6th. My co worker got hers last Friday. Reply WMR was down yesterday, don’t worry Reply I heard that if claimed education credits it a bit of delay but the only reason I found out is because I called the IRS and asked if there was any delays on forms Reply I got received by IRS on jam 24th still not approved while others I know filed same day and received theirs today does anyone know if deposits are only made once a week Reply Yes deposits are made every Thursday-Friday. If you search in Google. Expected 2015 federal refund payments you’ll find a chart on direct deposit and paper check dates Reply Just got my Federal refund now. A lot of you should be getting yours soon. Reply When did u file? Reply 1/23/2015 still first bar.. Reply I filed on the 22nd and my bar is no longer there! Reply I called today, and spoke to someone. I explained my situation, that I filed on 1/20/15, and my bar still says processing. He told me not to worry, but if my status doesn’t change, or if I don’t receive my refund by the 10th of this month, I should call back, and they can access my account. I then went on to ask if they have been having issues with this, and people calling in with similar problems.. He said no, sooo I filed around 1/20/2015. Its saying processing.. I have a friend that used turbo tax also she filed after I did and already getting her 1/30/2015… 🙁 🙁 🙁 Reply I received my federal refund today!!!! I filed last Wednesday night. Quick refund!! No bs. I have used turbo tax since 2008 and last year it took 8 days as well. Reply I did mine on 1/21/15 and it’s still being processed. Has any filed on the same day and received a DDD yet? Reply I did mine 1/23 no transcript available and received but not approves I did a friend of mines 2 hours before I did mine and she’s been approved for ddd on 1/30 ??? Reply I did mine on the same day and have the same “Return Received” status. How long before the refund is sent to they change it to “Refund Approved”? Reply No but I did mine since 1/26(it was accepted) and had been sitting in processing mode ever since. Waiting to be accepted by them. It’s 7 days later. But my co-worker used turbo tax to and she got a dd date 3 days after herd was accepted Reply me too still says processing while everyone else is getting there’s I’m so confused and broke!! Reply I did mine on 1/21/2015 and it says still being processed also. They said they did not start this year until 1/20/2015 and that was beginning with the taxes that came in first and had been stockpiled. Don’t know if this is the way they are really doing it then it is understandable, but they should let us all know. Keep us posted when you get approved as it always helps the rest of us and I will do the same. Reply I got to the second bar on irs to go bout d*** time i get my return on the 30th Reply When did you file, if you don’t mine me asking? Reply I filed on the 8th and was accepted on the 12th. i still have not received a DD it says processing on the WMR website. One girl, said hers says processing but her bank told her its there pending deposit for the 30th Reply I also filed on the 8th and got a text from turbo tax saying it was accepted on the 12th. I still have not received it and I am also getting the “processing” message on the WMR website. I know that’s no help, just letting you know you are not alone. Reply I’m in the same boat. Filed 1/8 accepted 1/12 and still showing processing. I call TT customer support last night and was told that the IRS did not accept my return on the 12th. I told the rep that I’m looking at my TT account now and it says “your return was accepted by the IRS on 1/12/2015. It seems that TT provided us misleading info and that our returns were not accepted until the 20th and we now have to wait from that date for the 21 days to be up. Hi, TurboTax began accepting tax returns on January 5 and the IRS began accepting the e-filed returns on 1/20, which we communicated in this post http://blog.turbotax.intuit.com/2015/01/05/now-accepted-you-can-file-your-2014-tax-return-with-turbotax-today/ Thank you, Lisa Greene-Lewis I did mine on 1/22/15 and it’s still being processed.

Any update? I’m having the same problem right now. My return was sent and accepted on the Feb 6th. There’s no more tracking tool only states that a date will be provided when my refund is processed. I never had this problem in the past. Reply
I filed mine on Jan 24th and it still says processing. I thought it was supposed to be approved within 72 hours if there weren’t any problems. Now I’m worried. I can’t find out anything. :/ Reply
You Amy want to double check the program you used. There maybe something you have to fix. If your using turbo tax or tax act, its usually accepted within 6 hours. I filed mine on Friday, Jan 30. The first time o sent it through, I received a notice within 5 minutes saying it was rejected. They needed my IP pin. To be safe, sign in and double check. Or check your help email they’ll also send you an email stating it was rejected. Hope that helps you Reply
Is anyone getting where’s my refund not available after you hit submit? I hope it’s just the site is down because I got accepted on the 23rd and approved yesterday with a dd date of the 4 th Reply
I got accepted on the 23rd and approved yesterday. But I’m worried because now when I type in my info on where’s my refund it says currently unavailable? Is this happening to anyone else? Reply
Yes, the system updates every 24 hours. Don’t worry. You’ll get your this week Thursday or Friday. Yayyyy Reply
My refund was accepted on jan.23rd and approved on jan.31st. Yesterday. But I checked the where’s my refund again late last night and it says it’s currently unavailable. I am freaking out… It had a dd date of February 4th. Am I still going to get it then? Is the where’s my refund. Like down right now or something? Reply
I heard that if claimed education credits it a bit of delay but the only reason I found out is because I called the IRS and asked if there was any delays on forms Reply
I got received by IRS on jam 24th still not approved while others I know filed same day and received theirs today does anyone know if deposits are only made once a week Reply
Yes deposits are made every Thursday-Friday. If you search in Google. Expected 2015 federal refund payments you’ll find a chart on direct deposit and paper check dates Reply
I called today, and spoke to someone. I explained my situation, that I filed on 1/20/15, and my bar still says processing. He told me not to worry, but if my status doesn’t change, or if I don’t receive my refund by the 10th of this month, I should call back, and they can access my account. I then went on to ask if they have been having issues with this, and people calling in with similar problems.. He said no, sooo
I filed around 1/20/2015. Its saying processing.. I have a friend that used turbo tax also she filed after I did and already getting her 1/30/2015… 🙁 🙁 🙁 Reply
I received my federal refund today!!!! I filed last Wednesday night. Quick refund!! No bs. I have used turbo tax since 2008 and last year it took 8 days as well. Reply
I did mine on 1/21/15 and it’s still being processed. Has any filed on the same day and received a DDD yet? Reply
I did mine 1/23 no transcript available and received but not approves I did a friend of mines 2 hours before I did mine and she’s been approved for ddd on 1/30 ??? Reply
I did mine on the same day and have the same “Return Received” status. How long before the refund is sent to they change it to “Refund Approved”? Reply
No but I did mine since 1/26(it was accepted) and had been sitting in processing mode ever since. Waiting to be accepted by them. It’s 7 days later. But my co-worker used turbo tax to and she got a dd date 3 days after herd was accepted Reply
me too still says processing while everyone else is getting there’s I’m so confused and broke!! Reply
I did mine on 1/21/2015 and it says still being processed also. They said they did not start this year until 1/20/2015 and that was beginning with the taxes that came in first and had been stockpiled. Don’t know if this is the way they are really doing it then it is understandable, but they should let us all know. Keep us posted when you get approved as it always helps the rest of us and I will do the same. Reply
I filed on the 8th and was accepted on the 12th. i still have not received a DD it says processing on the WMR website. One girl, said hers says processing but her bank told her its there pending deposit for the 30th Reply
I also filed on the 8th and got a text from turbo tax saying it was accepted on the 12th. I still have not received it and I am also getting the “processing” message on the WMR website. I know that’s no help, just letting you know you are not alone. Reply
I’m in the same boat. Filed 1/8 accepted 1/12 and still showing processing. I call TT customer support last night and was told that the IRS did not accept my return on the 12th. I told the rep that I’m looking at my TT account now and it says “your return was accepted by the IRS on 1/12/2015. It seems that TT provided us misleading info and that our returns were not accepted until the 20th and we now have to wait from that date for the 21 days to be up.
Hi, TurboTax began accepting tax returns on January 5 and the IRS began accepting the e-filed returns on 1/20, which we communicated in this post http://blog.turbotax.intuit.com/2015/01/05/now-accepted-you-can-file-your-2014-tax-return-with-turbotax-today/ Thank you, Lisa Greene-Lewis
