I got accepted on the 1st when will I get approved?

[ModestaL]

Are you attempting to check on your refund status?

[alwaysyourmommyh]

Sort of ! I just want to know when I’ll be approves

[ModestaL]

Did you claim any EITC and ACTC-related credits?

[alwaysyourmommyh]

What is that?

[ModestaL]

Earned Income Credit (you can receive with or without having a dependent) or Additional Child Tax Credit?

[alwaysyourmommyh]

What’s additional child tax credit is that what you get for claiming your child

[ModestaL]

Yes, you would receive Additional Child Tax Credit if you have a dependent and if your Child Tax Credit is greater than the total amount of income taxes you owe, as long as you had an earned income of at least $3,000.

I went and looked back at the thing and it says yes

[ModestaL]

Okay, that means the IRS may hold it until February 15, 2018 but will deposit it no later than February 27, 2018.

[alwaysyourmommyh]

So I could get them the 15th?

The IRS states that most refunds are received within 21 days from the time a return has been accepted and a refund option is selected. The IRS will hold the refunds claiming EITC and ACTC-related returns until Mid-February. 

If your Federal return has been accepted please, wait 24 hours before looking it up at Where's My Refund? Sometimes it may take a little longer to show up in their system. Then, the IRS will give you an estimated refund deposit date.
