My refund was sent to my bank on 2/24 but got rejected because of a closed account.. how long before the IRS issue a check ?
It depends on whether the rejected deposit was coming directly from the IRS to your bank, or if you used the option to pay any TurboTax fees out of your Federal refund.
If the funds were coming directly from the IRS to your closed account, then it goes back to the IRS, who issues a check in about 3 weeks or so normally. They mail it to the address shown on your return.
On the other hand, if you paid any fees out of your Federal refund, then the IRS sends the funds to an intermediary bank where the fees are subtracted. Then that intermediary bank sends the rest to your bank in a second direct deposit. If that's your situation and it was that second deposit that was rejected by your bank, then it goes back to the intermediary bank, and the third-party company that administers that (SBTPG) would send you the check.
