If you have a Federal Refund that is being direct deposited and the return was efiled, your Refund can take up to 21 business days according to the IRS as of 12/23/23 once the IRS accepts the return which varies 1-3 days after it was efiled. However, no refunds will be issued that claim the Earned Income Tax Credit or Child Tax Credit. Each return that claims those credits are reviewed by the IRS individual and won’t release refunds until Mid-March regardless if the return was filed in early February. If paper filed it can take 16+ weeks once the IRS has it in their system.  To check the status of your refund please go to the irs.gov website.
