You no longer need to wait for your check to arrive in the mail. Your money will always be in your account on time. If you move without changing financial institutions, you will not have to wait for your check to catch up with you. You do not have to worry about lost, stolen or misplaced checks.

If you e-filed your return, you can expect to receive a faster refund through direct deposit rather than if you mailed in your tax documents. The IRS states that paper tax returns are mailed out within 6 to 8 weeks, while those filed electronically will be issued in less than 3 weeks, and again, even faster if using direct deposit

Choosing to receive your refund as a paper check will definitely slow down the process; therefore, if you are looking to get your money faster, e-filing and choosing direct deposit is the way to go. Although direct deposit is much faster, you should still expect to wait a few extra days for the funds to be available in your account. Depending on your financial institution, your waiting time may vary. To e-file, you may want to consider filing online through reliable websites like TurboTax, TaxAct, or E-file.

After e-filing your taxes, you will need to set up how you will receive your payment. Other than direct deposit, there are a few other options to choose from when you file electronically as to how to receive your refund, such as:

  • Receipt of a debit card holding the value of the refund
  • Purchase of up to $5,000 in U.S. Savings Bonds
  • Split of your refund amount into up to 3 financial accounts in your name
  • Contribution to a traditional IRA, Roth IRA, or SEP-IRA

If you’re a Chime member,  you can choose “direct deposit” on your tax return software. You then input your Chime Checking Account number and corresponding routing number, and that’s it!

From there, you just have to wait for your refund to show up in your account. Once your refund is available Chime will send you a text alert and email. This way you will know that the money is there the second you receive it.

When choosing your delivery option, remember that it will affect how quickly you receive your money. Again, direct deposit is known as the fastest and safest way to get your tax refund, and the IRS recommends this method to taxpayers across the board.

When can I expect my refund 2022?

Overall, the IRS anticipates most taxpayers will receive their refund within 21 days of when they file electronically if they choose direct deposit and there are no issues with their tax return. The IRS urges taxpayers and tax professionals to file electronically.

Why are 2022 refunds taking so long?

Is There a Delay on 2022 Tax Refunds? Last year, many taxpayers ended up waiting longer than the usual 21 days — some as long as eight weeks — to receive their refunds as the IRS was dealing with the backlog of returns caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. The IRS is still working through this backlog of 2020 tax returns.

How long does it usually take to get taxes back?

If you file a complete and accurate paper tax return, your refund should be issued in about six to eight weeks from the date IRS receives your return. If you file your return electronically, your refund should be issued in less than three weeks, even faster when you choose direct deposit.

When can I expect my refund Netherlands?

The Dutch tax administration only transfers refunds to the personal bank account of the referred taxpayer. An income tax assessment will be issued by a tax inspector after the tax return has been audited. The refunds will be received after receipt of the final assessment; normally within two months.
