During the 2025 tax season, the IRS provides a user-friendly online tool called 'Where's My Refund?' to help taxpayers check their refund status. By entering personal details like Social Security Number and filing status, users can easily determine if their return is still processing, has been approved, or already sent. Additionally, processing times vary based on the refund delivery method, with direct deposits typically occurring within 2 to 5 business days post-approval. Taxpayer inquiries regarding refund status are common during this period.
Checking your refund status is pretty easy. Here's how: Go to the IRS's "Where's My Refund?" tool at www.irs.gov/wheres-my-refund. Click the "Check your refund" button.
The IRS says the tool will show you one of three results: "Return Received" means the agency has received your tax return and it is still processing it. "Refund Approved"...
According to tax firm Jackson Hewitt's Chief Tax Information Officer, Mark Steber, that depends on the method by which your refund is being delivered.
If your refund is being delivered by direct deposit to your bank account, you should receive it in your account between 2 to 5 business days after the IRS issues it.
