After you file

To track your Federal refund, visit the Where’s My Federal Refund? site.  You may also download the IRS2Go app to check your Federal refund status

Note: You will need your social security number, filing status, and refund amount in order to track your refund.

After your return has been accepted, wait 24 hours before checking your status on the IRS website. Be sure when checking Where’s My Federal Refund? site that you are entering only your Federal refund amount. This can be found on your Federal form 1040, line 21a.  If you paid any fees out of your federal refund, use the refund figure prior to the deduction of he fees. Also, if you filed joint, be sure to enter the filers name that appears first on the return.

Why is there no record of my return at Where's My Refund (WMR)?
