Another Tax Day has come and gone, and you’ve survived. Whether you filed your taxes the second you got all of the necessary documents or at 11:59pm on April 18th, you’re probably all asking the same question:
“Where’s my tax refund?”
Well, if you filed your taxes online this year, the IRS has a handy-dandy refund chart that can show you when your refund will be processed.
For example, if you e-filed your taxes and they were accepted by the IRS on March 15th (I’m going to assume that you were all good boys and girls and filed early this year), then you should either have gotten a direct deposit on March 25th or a check was processed and mailed out to you on April 1st (no joke).
If you check the chart and your refund should have gotten to you by now, you can head over to the IRS website to check your refund status. Be sure to have your 2011 tax return handy so that you can enter the necessary information to get your refund status. You can also call the IRS Refund Hotline at 1-800-829-1954, or the IRS TeleTax system at 1-800-829-4477.
Once you find out the status of your refund, you can proceed from there.
Just don’t spend it all in one place, now.
On the Money,
