I wen to the irs website and used the wheres my refund tool. It said my refund was scheduled to be mailed today, the 26th. I filed direct deposit so why does it say it's being mailed?

    FROM THE IRS WHERE’S MY REFUND SITE:

    https://www.irs.gov/wheres-my-refund

    How it works

    Where's My Refund shows your refund status:

    • Return Received – We received your return and are processing it.
    • Refund Approved – We approved your refund and are preparing to issue it by the date shown.
    • Refund Sent – We sent the refund to your bank or to you in the mail. It may take 5 days for it to show in your bank account or several weeks for your check to arrive in the mail.

     

    If you got a paper check instead of direct deposit, it’s because:

    • The account is not under your name, your spouse's name or a joint account
    • Your financial institution rejected a direct deposit
    • You requested more than 3 electronic refunds into 1 account
