Where do I check the status of my tax refund?

,

If you have not received your refund, please visit the IRS website: https://www.irs.gov/refunds.  Typically, the IRS will issue a refund within 3 weeks from efiling your tax return and up to 6 weeks if you filed a paper tax return.  If you had owed the IRS from prior years, the IRS may use your refund to reduce prior amounts owed to them.

You can also download the IRS mobile app to check the status of your refund: https://www.irs.gov/uac/irs2goapp

To locate your State of Illinois tax refund, you can use the MyTax Illinois tool here: https://mytax.illinois.gov/_/
