After you file

It can take anywhere from a few days to 3 weeks to go from acceptance to approval.  Last year, 9 out of 10 e-filers received their IRS tax refund in less than 21 days, and we expect the same this year.

Once you've received confirmation your federal return has been accepted, you'll be able to start tracking your refund at the IRS Where's My Refund? site.

Also, if you chose direct deposit, your financial institution will need another day or two to post the refund to your account, so keep that in mind.
