The most common timeframe for the IRS to process and release refunds is within 21 calendar days after an e-filed return has been accepted (received). After 21 days we recommend you contact the IRS at 800-829-1040.

What if my IRS refund is taking longer than 21 days?

    I filed on 3/4 and just spoke with the IRS she said to wait 10 weeks from the day you filed because of the pandemic.  That beginning of May. I have Always had my refund back within 14 days but not this year, said from everything that has happened
