Fridays is not the deposit day. It's the day of the week IRS updates its computers with additional information to inform people on their accounts status and the treasury to mail out hard copy checks. The IRS is supposed to deposit tax refunds within 21 days of processing your tax return.

@dstark You'll have to speak directly to IRS to find out more about the delay. You can reach them at 800-829-1040. When calling, be sure to have the following:

Your Social Security Number or Individual Taxpayer Identification Number
Your filing status (Single, Head of Household, Married Filing Joint, or Married Filing Separate)
Your prior-year tax return (they may ask you questions from it to verify your identity)
A copy of the tax return you’re calling about
Any letters they may have sent you
Paper and pen to take notes—make sure to write down the day you called and the name and ID number of the agent you spoke to, as well as any instructions or deadlines you were given.

Please note: It may take over an hour to get your call answered as the IRS lines are busy at this time of year.

The usual timeframe to receive a refund is 21 days from the date of acceptance. If it has been longer than 21 days and your return is still processing, please contact the IRS directly.

Please refer to the IRS contact information below.

What if my IRS refund is taking longer than 21 days?
