Irs says refund was supposed to hit on 2/27/19. Bars say sent and still nothing??? Why is it taking so long?

You must allow a couple days of bank processing time for the deposit to actually hit your account. It is not an instant transfer of funds. The IRS actually states in their refund notice to not do anything until 7 days have passed. It rarely takes anywhere close to that long. The IRS released a tremendous amount of refunds on 2/27 and I am sure they are getting processed. It usually hits your account within 1-3 business days.
