Wondering when you will receive your tax refund? It’s easy to find out!
Use the “Where’s My Refund?” tool on the IRS website or the IRS2Go app to check your refund status. You will need the following:
- SSN or ITIN
- Your filing status
- The exact amount of the refund you are expecting
The IRS tool is updated on a daily basis, usually overnight, so there’s no need to check more often. Most refunds are issued within 21 days.

When can I check my refund status?
You can start tracking your refund 24 hours after your return has been both e-filed and accepted. However, if you mailed your tax return to the IRS, you’ll need to wait four weeks before checking your refund status.
How long does it take to get a tax refund?
The IRS issues 9 out of 10 refunds within 21 days. Your return may take longer to be processed if it requires additional review by the IRS, or your filing gets audited.
Why is my tax refund delayed?
There are several things that can slow down your refund. Here are some reasons yours may be delayed:
- You chose to file a paper return
- You made a mistake or your return is incomplete
- Hacienda sospecha de usurpación de identidad o fraude
- You claimed the Earned Income Tax Credit or an Additional Child Tax Credit
- Su declaración necesita más revisión
- Your return included Form 8379, Injured Spouse Allocation which takes up to 14 weeks to be processed.
How do I check the refund status of an amended return?
If you need to make changes to your return after you filed it, you can file an amended return.
To check the status of your refund on an amended return, use the IRS “Where’s My Amended Return?” tool on their website.
You will need the following:
- Social Security number
- Date of birth
- Your residential zip code
You can check the status of an amended return about 3 weeks after you submit it. Expect to wait up to 20 weeks for your return to be processed.
