The IRS sent my payment on the 24th, how long until it reaches my bank account?

It can take up to 5 days before the deposit will show on your bank account.

Awesome, I appreciate the fast response! I guess I should have read the full details... I was thinking 21 days after it was sent. Thank you for the response.
