Where’s Your Tax Refund?

Where’s Your Tax Refund?: From GovGab:
detail of a check that says "pay to the order of""If you’re like millions of Americans, you might be wondering when your federal tax refund will arrive. Of course, if you’re like me, there’s no need to wonder because you haven’t even filed your taxes yet. There’s still two more days!
These days you don't have to wonder about your federal tax refund status. You can check the status of your federal tax return on the IRS (Internal Revenue Service) website. It’s also possible to check the status of your return by phone by calling the IRS TeleTax System at 1-800-829-4477 or the IRS Refund Hotline at 1-800-829-1954.
If you e-filed your taxes, your refund information is available about 72 hours after the IRS acknowledges receipt of your e-filed return. If you mailed a paper return, it takes 3-4 weeks until the information is available.
And as always be alert and don’t fall for any tax refund scams or fraud. The IRS never requests detailed personal information through e-mail, and they don’t send e-mail requesting your PIN numbers, passwords or similar access information for credit cards, banks or other financial accounts."
