After you file

Does your refund on the IRS website show it has been sent? Once your refund status on the IRS shows "Refund Sent" it can take 1 to 5 business days for the financial institution to deposit fund into your account. 

The general timeline of e-filed returns is: Transmission > Acceptance > Processing > Approval > Refund.

For the most up to date information on your refund, check your status on the IRS Where’s My Federal Refund? site.

If you are concerned about a refund offset and you have not received a notice, you can call the offset hotline. Click the link below for information on the IRS and phone number:
