How long will it take to receive a credit rebate recovery check

This year, the IRS will not begin accepting tax returns until February 12.  The IRS says 90% of filers will receive their refunds within 21 days of acceptance.  

 

To find out where your refund is, first check your e-file status. If it's been accepted, you can begin to track your refund at the IRS Where's My Refund? site.  You will need your Social Security number or ITIN, filing status, and the exact amount of your refund to check your status.

How long will it take to receive a credit rebate recovery check

The IRS stopped mailing Stimulus checks so if you don't get it by the time the efiling opens on Feb 12  you can apply for the missing money on your 2020 return.  So don't be in a hurry to file.  Even if Turbo Tax lets you submit your return they will just hold all the returns until the IRS opens filing on Feb 12, 2021.  And a lot of people who file early find out they have to amend later like when they get their actual W2 and 1099 forms.  Or they get more forms than they were expecting.  

 

The Recovery rebate credit is on 1040 line 30.  It either adds to your refund or reduced a tax due.

 

Before filing,  You can preview the 1040 or print the whole return
