If you want to know when you will receive your tax refund, use the IRS2Go phone app or go to www.irs.gov and click on the ‘where’s my refund?’ link. You will need to provide your social security number, filing status, and the exact whole dollar amount of your refund. Once you enter this information, you can see if your return was received, if the refund was approved, and when your refund is scheduled to be sent.
You can check on the status within 24 hours after your e-filed return is received by the IRS, or 4 weeks after you mail a paper return. The IRS will provide you with an actual refund date, instead of an estimated date as in previous years. This service is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and is updated daily.
