How long does it take to get my electronic refund after my id has been verified??

Only the IRS can tell you when you will receive your refund after you verify your identity.  Under normal conditions it can take about nine weeks.  Many federal refunds have been delayed during the pandemic so anything we say would only be a guess.

 

To call the IRS:IRS:  800-829-1040  hours 7 AM - 7 PM local time Mon-Fri

Listen to each menu before making the selection.

First choose your language. Press 1 for English.

Then do NOT choose the first choice re: "Refund", or it will send you to an automated phone line.

Instead, press 2 for "personal income tax".

Then press 1 for "form, tax history, or payment".  

Then press 3 "for all other questions."

Then press 2 "for all other questions."  It should then transfer you to an agent.

Note on the flow chart the ID notify is at the beginning of the processing system not the end so the return is put back into the flow once you call.  If you never verify then the return is trashed right away and is never processed ... this saves the IRS wasting time.
