How To Track Your Tax Refund
2

• Getting a tax refund is what every U.S. citizen
  hopes for when they complete their filing,
  waiting for it to come through can be a nail
  biting time, though. The IRS state that refunds
  should be received within 21 days if youve used
  the e-file service or direct deposit but will
  take a little longer if youve filed through the
  mail or have asked for a cheque to be sent to
  you.
• Can you track your tax refund online?
• You can, using the IRS official website, by
  downloading the IRS app or by calling their
  toll-free number. When on the IRS website, click
  on wheres my refund and follow the
  instructions.

• You should be able to begin tracking your tax
  refund within 24 hours online, provided youve
  e-filed, if you sent it through the post then
  unfortunately youll have to wait up to 4 weeks.
• What information will you need to hand when
  tracking your refund online?
• You will need to have your social security number
  ready, know your filing status, and be ready to
  give the exact amount of your expected refund.
  The amount needs to be precise otherwise your
  request to track your refund online may not be
  granted. Once youve finished entering the
  relevant information, simply click submit.

• The next screen will then tell you whether your
  refund has been deposited, has been sent to you
  in the post, or the date that it will be due.
• Tracking your tax refund on the IRS app
• Once youve downloaded the free IRS2Go app on
  your smartphone, have your social security number
  ready, your filing status and the precise total
  of your expected refund. Enter the relevant
  information and as with tracking your tax refund
  status via the IRS website, youll discover when
  you can expect it to be deposited or mailed.

• Tracking your tax refund over the telephone
• The IRS tax helpline is automated and toll-free,
  and as with every method of tracking your refund,
  youll need to have at hand your social security
  number, filing status and exact amount of refund
  expected. It would be wise to have a notebook and
  pen handy too, just in case you need to write
  anything down. Again, you will be told when you
  can expect your refund and if you have any
  further questions youll be given a different
  number to call.
