Since I see these questions over and over.

The IRS phone number is 1-800-829-1040 7AM-7PM mon-fri

DO NOT choose the option of refund, you will be sent to the automated tax refunds area.

There is also 1-800-829-3676 which is free IRS tax HELP for FORMS.

And 1-800-829-4933 for IRS Business Taxes.

The other number in the answer is the IRS Social Security number is 1-800-829-0922.

Whenever you call, make sure you write down and get the persons ID number, they say it so fast. This way you have a point of reference.

To CHECK THE STATUS OF YOUR IRS REFUND:https://sa.www4.irs.gov/irfof/lang/en/irfofgetstatus.jsp  is the link to the IRS website for Where's my Refund updates.

MAKE SURE that when you click the link you get to a HTTPS site which means secure....

You can use either filers SSN for MFJ returns.

There is a tab at the top for help determining information needed to enter.

Often it takes 24 hours for this information to be updated.

TO GET A COPY OF YOUR IRS TAX TRANSCRIPT which will include prior year AGI:

A free IRS return transcript via mail or online is the quickest option and has most of the information from your return. Go to the IRS transcript site and follow the online instructions.

To get a transcript via mail (which most people can do)

I hope this was helpful?

Request a free transcript of your federal return from the IRS. A transcript is used to verify income and most financial institutions accept it as a substitute for your original tax return. IRS Transcript….
http://www.irs.gov/Individuals/Get-Transcript

 

Or order an exact copy of your tax return (including all attachments) from the IRS. There is a fee per tax return. See http://www.irs.gov/taxtopics/tc156.html for complete instructions

What tax year are you looking for on Where's my refund?  You can look for your most recently filed return:

 

You need your filing status, your Social Security number and the exact amount  (line 20a of your Form 1040) of your federal refund to track your Federal refund:

TurboTax gives you an estimated date for receiving your refund based on a 21 day average from your date of acceptance, but it can take longer.

Once your federal return has been accepted by the IRS, only the IRS has any control. TurboTax does not receive any updates from the IRS. Your ONLY source of information about your refund now is the IRS.

You need your filing status, your Social Security number and the exact amount  (line 20 of your Form 1040) of your federal refund to track your Federal refund:

To track your state refund:

On the IRS site you are also offered the use of an app called IRS2Go

https://ttlc.intuit.com/questions/1901548-why-do-some-refunds-take-longer-than-others

If you chose to have your TurboTax fees deducted from your federal refund, that will take some extra time, while the third party bank handles the refund processing.

@Walterf85   What is your question about W2?  Your employer was suppose to give you the W2 by January 31.  Didn't you get it yet?  Ask your employer for another copy.

What type of Form 1095?  A Form 1095-B or a Form 1095-C is not entered on a tax return.

You only enter a Form 1095-A on a tax return which is sent to you by the state Marketplace Exchange if you had health insurance through the Marketplace.  If you need the Form 1095-A then to this healthcare.gov website - https://www.healthcare.gov/tax-form-1095/

I haven't  received anything in my account by bank has not received anything, so how do I find out if the check was actually sent to my direct deposit on April 30. It doesn't say anything about if I don't receive it what to do, I did go to my refund status and nothing came up,I found out about my refund when I went to get my payment. Could someone tell me what to do next.
