This is from the IRS:

 

If you claimed the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) or the Additional Child Tax Credit (ACTC), you can expect to get your refund by February 28 if:

  • You file your return online
  • You choose to get your refund by direct deposit
  • We found no issues with your return

However, some taxpayers may see their refunds a few days earlier. Check Where’s My Refund for your personalized refund date. Where's My Refund should show an updated status by February 18 for most early EITC/ACTC filers.

My spouse is receiving her 2/22/23. We both claim 3 children(we have 6) on our taxes. Mine has been in the still being processed phase since 2/07/23 while hers said because of eitc it couldn’t be processed until mid to lay feb. So I don’t what’s going on but this is also the only time I’ve ever had multiple jobs due to an injury where I completely tore my left acl and broke femar. Gotta love the ways around the job protection acts in place
