Banks vary regarding the time of day they post deposits.  No one in this user forum can tell you what time of day your own bank will post your deposit.

 

And....

FROM THE IRS WHERE’S MY REFUND SITE:

https://www.irs.gov/wheres-my-refund

How it works

Where's My Refund shows your refund status:

  • Return Received – We received your return and are processing it.
  • Refund Approved – We approved your refund and are preparing to issue it by the date shown.
  • Refund Sent – We sent the refund to your bank or to you in the mail. It may take 5 days for it to show in your bank account or several weeks for your check to arrive in the mail.

I’m not asking what time MY bank will post the refund…there are certain times of day the IRS will post/send direct deposits out…

looks like it hasn’t been done yet…from the posts I’m reading…mine also says “your refund will be issued BY March 12”
