I mailed off my take returns. How long does it take to come direct deposit? And how can I tell if they received it or not?

If you mailed your federal return and are expecting a refund you can start checking the status of your return on the IRS website Where's My Refund4 weeks after mailing your return. It takes that amount of time for it to show up in their system, sometimes a bit longer if they are backed up.
You only want to call them if it’s been at least 6 weeks since you mailed and at that time, you can reach them at the IRS tax refund hotline at 800-829-4477, Monday - Friday, 7:00 a.m. to 11:30 p.m. Or, call the 24-hour assistance number at 800-829-1040
If you mailed state, choose your state here https://ttlc.intuit.com/questions/1899433 and it will provide you instructions on how to check the status of your state return on your state's website.
