How long does it take to get a check from tpg

[Akemi875]

4-6 from that date I'd say. I'm going through the same, was supposed to get mine beginning of March...yours is actually sent to them, it's waiting to be recieved by that pic so probably 2 weeks and they'll have it to give updates.

You should get it 5 weeks from the date it says it was sent back. I just spoke with an IRS agent and mine was sent the 7th, she said 5 weeks from that date I should have it. Up to 3 weeks for them to get it back once it's sent to them from TPG plus 2 weeks for it to be received in your mailbox as a paper check.

Keep me updated. I put a trace on it September 6th. I called IRS today they still haven’t received it so I will wait two weeks to call. Thanks.

[Monicalew]

It takes 10-12 weeks from when it’s sent back to the IRS and another 3-4 weeks for it to arrive in the mail. So all together 16 weeks.

[Akemi875]

Have they recieved yours yet to mail it? From the date mine was sent back, today makes it 11 weeks.

What is a good number to call at irs. Tpg said they sent my check in October 1 and I want to confirm this information.

[Akemi875]

[phone number removed] ext 462 is what the regular IRS number tells you to call

@Shorash85 - the IRS would only be able to confirm they sent the refund to TPG.  CHeck your tax transcript at the IRS website - that transcript will indicate when the check was mailed to TPG - no need to call the IRS

there is no organization that can independently verify when TPG sent the check to you

Lesson learned: pay your tax service fees with a credit or debit card.  Then , your refund will come directly from the IRS and avoid TPG.

I call at 7 am and I only wait about 20 min to get an agent extension 3…..6…..2….

[Monicalew]

They told me to call in December because it’ll be at the 10-12 week mark.

Mine was sent 9/22 so probably won’t have it till the second week of January.

[Shorash85]

Tpg sent my check back to IRS, that is what I am trying to figure out.

The IRS can take a month or more to process out a paper check once they get the money back from the processing bank.  Make sure the IRS has a current mailing address if it is now different from the one on the tax return.
