You could receive it within 1-5 business days so keep an eye out for it. Most financial institutions take time to receive refunds from the IRS. You can see more information on this topic here: https://www.irs.gov/individuals/refund-timing.

If it has been longer than 5 days, check with your bank, since banks vary in how and when they credit the funds.

The government does not have the money.

This is my recent update on gub website

You requested a direct deposit of your refund when you filed your return. However, we are unable to complete your request. Instead, we are sending a check to the address shown on your tax return.

Your tax refund is scheduled to be mailed by March 13, 2020. If you do not receive the refund by April 10, 2020, please contact us again. We are unable to take any action until then.

Please Note:

For refund information, please continue to check here, or use our free mobile app, IRS2Go. Updates to refund status are made no more than once a day.

I FILED ON 1/27. THESE PEOPLE GIVE HARD DEADLINES EVERY DAY YET THEY DO WHAT THEY WANT.

It can take 4-6 weeks to receive your check via mail. This is after the IRS accepts and approves your return. If your original check was returned to the IRS for some reason, it will take longer for the second check to be issued because they have to ensure the first check was not cashed.

Yes, you may contact the IRS at 1-800-829-1040 please see this website article from the IRS on contact hours and information you will need to have ready when calling them: https://www.irs.gov/help/telephone-assistance.

Here are some tips when contacting the IRS: (wait times could be very long).

First choose your language.
Then do not choose the first choice regarding REFUND, or it will send you to an automated phone line.
Instead, press 2 for personal income tax questions.
Then press 1 for form, tax history, or payment.
Then press 3 for all other questions.
Then press 2 for all other questions to be transferred to an agent
