Why has my income tax not been sent to my bank? It was sent on the 1st of February and it is not there??!!

If my income tax was sent to my bank the 1st why are they saying it was not there?

If the status in Where’s My Refund? shows “Refund Sent”, the IRS has sent your tax refund to your financial institution for direct deposit. It can take 1 to 5 days for your financial institution to deposit funds into your account. If you don't receive it in 1 to 5 days then you should contact your financial institution.
