WASHINGTON â The Internal Revenue Service today reminds taxpayers that the most convenient way to check on a tax refund is by using the âWhereâs My Refund?â tool at IRS.gov or through the IRS2Go Mobile App.
Taxpayers can start checking their refund status within 24 hours after an e-filed return is received. In addition, âWhereâs My Refund?” provides a personalized date after the return is processed and a refund is approved.
Go paperless
Now more than ever, the safest and best way to file a complete and accurate tax return and get a refund is to file electronically and use direct deposit. Taxpayers can visit IRS.gov/filing for more details about IRS Free File, Free File Fillable Forms and free tax preparation sites. E-filing is also available through a trusted tax professional.
