Where’s My Refund?

[McFurd]

AARP - Tracy Thompson - Go online to find out when to expect your money. On Feb. 15, something wonderful happened: The river of money taxpayers send to the federal government temporarily reversed its flow. Yes, it’s tax-refund season, although that reverse flow won’t start hitting individual bank accounts until next week at the earliest, depending on whether you filed on paper or electronically and whether you asked for direct deposit. The season officially began Feb. 15 for taxpayers who claim child-related deductions and for low-to-moderate-income families who qualify for the earned income tax credit, thanks to legislation called the Protecting Americans from Tax Hikes Act of 2015. The IRS’ Where’s My Refund? webpage, which the agency will start updating on Feb. 18, lets you check on when your money should arrive. There’s also a smartphone app, for the super impatient who need hourly updates. Read more @ http://www.aarp.org/money/taxes/info-20 ... ation.html
