Use the IRS “Where’s My Refund?” tool at irs.gov/refunds
Enter your Social Security number or ITIN, filing status, and exact refund amount
Check your refund status 24 hours after e-filing or about 4 weeks after mailing a paper return
Use the IRS2Go mobile app to check refund status on a phone
Call the IRS refund hotline at 1-800-829-1954
Review your tax return for errors if the status is delayed
Wait for the IRS processing time if your return is still being reviewed
Contact the IRS if the tool says to call or if more than 21 days have passed since e-filing without an update
