Does fed taxes and state taxes come together on your taxes
It is federal taxes, and state taxes combined together as one when you get your federal taxes or does state taxes come later
Expert Reviewed
No, the Federal and state refunds don't typically come at the same time. It would just be a huge coincidence if they arrived on the same day, and even then it would be separate deposits. They come from 2 different tax agencies, each doing its own thing. There is no way to predict which will come first. However, I'd say for a lot of people the Federal comes first and state later. But it's really variable and can depend on the particular state. Some states are pretty quick with getting out refunds, while others are a lot slower.
You can track your Federal refund at the IRS "Where's My Refund" tool:
