My status says tax refund will be there on February 28 , just wandering if I will get it that day?

Generally the IRS does deposit the refund on the estimated date given on the Where's my refund site, but there are times when there are slight delays in the batch processing of the refunds.  Don't panic if it doesn't deposit on the date that is estimated, but rather give it an extra 24-48 hours and if you still don't see it show as Sent on the IRS site you can call to check on your status return. 

When the status of your refund is Refund Sent, it means the IRS has sent your refund to your financial institution for direct deposit. This status will tell you when your refund was sent to your bank. It may take your financial institution 1 – 5 days to deposit the funds into your account.
