After you file

If your return was accepted less than 21 days ago, hang in there. It can take anywhere from a few days to 3 weeks to go from acceptance to approval. 

Continue checking the IRS Where’s My Federal Refund? site for updates. Updates are made daily, usually overnight. You may also download the IRS2Go app to check your Federal refund status.

Once your refund status on the IRS or State shows "Refund Sent" it can take 1 to 5 business days for the financial institution to deposit funds into your account.
