Out of everything you can do, we wouldn’t recommend calling the IRS. Here's What You Need to Remember: To track your refund, you’ll need your Social Security Number, your filing status, and your total refund amount, excluding cents. By entering all of these into the IRS’ “Where’s My Refund” tool, you will be given the status of your refund. Otherwise, you’ll get an error message. The final tax deadline, usually April 15, has been moved back to May 17 for 2020 returns. If you haven’t sent in your 2020 taxes yet, you have roughly a week to get it in order. If this is impossible, never fear; it’s fairly easy to request an extension with the IRS.
