The 2024 tax filing season began on January 29. While most people have until this year’s April 15 filing deadline to submit their taxes, and people who’ve filed for an extension even longer, plenty of people have already sent their returns to the IRS and are eagerly awaiting their refund. Some VERIFY readers have already texted us to ask if it’s possible to track their tax return, and how to do so. The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has a web tool called “Where’s My Refund?” that people can use to track their tax refund. Alternatively, people can check the status of their refund through the IRS2Go mobile app. People can use the tool and app to check the status of their 2023 income tax refund 24 hours after e-filing and four weeks after filing a paper return, the IRS says. People can also check the status of their tax refunds for 2021 and 2022, but the IRS says updates on those returns won’t appear until three or four days after filing. Information on tax refund status is updated once a day, overnight. To find your refund, you’ll need your Social Security or taxpayer ID number, your filing status and the exact refund amount on your return.
