Does a refund ever get deposited before the date on 'Where's My Refund'?

Your refund should come on the date specified by the IRS...

Your refund should come on the date specified by the IRS but it can bee sooner or a little later due to your financial institution.

It can come earlier than the date the IRS provided you be...

It can come earlier than the date the IRS provided you because when a company is sending money to your banking institute via direct deposit... in order for it to be available on the date it is posted for... they have to send the electronic transmission at least 24 hours in advance but most send it 48 hours in advance. That transmission will have a post date attached with it on when the funds are to be paid out. However, most prepaid credit/debit cards and some banks will release the funds to you as soon as they get the electronic transmission regardless what the post date says. A lot of the major banking companies will not release the funds early. You will see it pending in your recent transactions but it will show the date that it will be available which will match what the IRS said your deposit date would be.

Thank you

What about paper checks?

If you will be receiving a paper check, it can take 4-8 weeks or longer to receive your refund.

It may also take longer due to other reasons, such as the particular forms that were filed, or due to the PATH Act. For more details, please see the Help Article here.

Did you get it yet? If so how much longer after the 21st?

IRS tells you that you have to wait for the bank to post your money.

That means IRS is not going to send it out early in an attempt to satisfy the date they stated.

The will send it out on that date. You will wait.

He obviously got it, or he would have most likely responded by now.

On the refund app it says my refund will be direct deposited by February 23rd, however the IRS schedule says the 24th. When should I expect my refund? 23rd or 24th?

@Cancersucks2022 No one in this forum is going to be able to pinpoint the moment your refund will post to your account. You are going to have to watch your account. Even after the IRS issues the refund it can take up to five days to post to an account.

Is this due to a person's financial institution that it can take up to 5 days later? .... so if a refund will be sent on the 24th per code 846 on the transcripts, does this mean that the its assist sent the refund and up to my financial institution to post the day they receive it or the date irs has post dated?

Yes, when the IRS Where's My Refund? site shows a date that your funds have been sent to your bank, it can take a few days for the bank to actually post the deposit to your account.
