Efile Tax Refund Schedule
Question: Is the IRS going to start issuing tax refunds on January 23rd?
I know their website says the first ones go out on January 30th, but I heard that in the past they’ve always started about a week earlier than scheduled. Does anyone know if this is true?
Also, on efile.com they have a schedule saying that if you filed by January 16th, you can expect your direct deposit by January 26th (which is a Monday) – which is also a different date than the IRS schedule. Any truth to this rumor?
Thanks for your help, and good luck to everyone waiting for their refunds!!
Answer: I did taxes last year and they did have a habit of depositing earlier. I checked with the IRS on Monday and was told that the deposits can start as early as the 26th depending on when you e-filed. So it is possible and more over probable to expect early deposits. The IRS use to only deposit/mail checks out on Fridays, or so i was told, but as of the last few years, they have started a random deposit. Wedensdays and Fridays were done last year. Good luck to you too.
