After you file

You are always going to find someone else whose refund arrived faster, and someone who waited even longer than you.  That is the way it goes. Returns are not processed “first in — first out.”

 

You know that the IRS has your tax return and you know they are working on it.   You cannot speed them up.  Sadly, even though you need the refund, the answer is still going to be that you have to wait for the IRS to finish processing your return.   The refund site updates daily, so you can check it tonight or tomorrow.
