How long after the bank rejects my refund will it take the IRS to issue me a paper check

[Loretta1957]

So when the bank reject it do they send it to irs or santa Barbara?

If you opted to e-file and you entered an incorrect account number for direct deposit or your bank rejected the deposit, the government will mail you a refund check, allow 5-6 weeks from the postmark date:

What if I entered the wrong bank account for direct deposit

@Loretta1957 mine was supposedly mailed Friday from Santa Barbara checked today and it said today’s date mine was also rejected because I supposedly forgot one number on my account number but reading reviews this is a recurring thing for thousands of people year after year with this bank so I’ll see if the check come this week

It can take 4-6 weeks to receive your check via mail. This is after the IRS accepts and approves your return. If your original check was returned to the IRS for some reason, it will take longer for the second check to be issued because they have to ensure the first check was not cashed.

This happen to me this year. I received my check from the bank turbo tax uses within 10 days of my bank rejected it. It depends on your bank and how long they take to send it back. Bank of America sent it back the next day. Hope this helps

Mine was rejected due to a closed account too,checked wmr irs stated that my refund is scheduled to be mailed by march 13th. I wonder could it be sooner.

Doubt it ... in fact it could take as much as a week for the check to be delivered by the post office  ... so the old adage holds true ... don't spend it until you get it.

I got it that Friday so there you go mind your business Thank you!!!

my dd was rejected to on 3/27 I checked the status now its saying 1121 ? will a check be mailed or do I have to call irs ?

[kurtis2121]

ok one question do the irs2go app or any other tool to check status updates as 1121 code ? 

[moneycollector98]

So my bank told me they rejected & sent back my stimulus check because my banking account was currently closed. Would my situation be the same ? Am I going to receive mine in mail??

[Critter]

Yes ... they will send a check in the mail to the last address they have on file for you.  Expect it to take 3 weeks or longer for the conversion to paper.

[kurtis2121]

So I would be getting a check cause mines was rejected March 27th an they sent the cash back same day bank stated 

[Critter]

Yep ... that is the normal procedure for rejected deposits. 

[Critter]

Correct.
