I would like to inquire on the status of my tax return? It stated that it was sent to my bank on the 17th of March for direct deposit, but I've not received anything.

Who said that?  The IRS?  If you asked to have your TT fees deducted from it, that can add extra time.  And your own bank can then take 1-5 days to credit the deposit.

Thanks for the swift reply, @SweetieJean!  I don't mind waiting a bit longer.  Just wanted to make sure itwas being worked.
