Check Your Refund

Check your refund on the IRS2Go app

Filing the same tax return again typically won't speed up your refund, and could even lead to delays.

However, you should resubmit your tax return, electronically if possible, if all of these apply:

• You are due a refund,
• You filed on paper more than 6 months ago, and
• Where’s My Refund does not show that we received your return.

Resubmit your tax return only if all of the items above apply to you.

Call us about your refund status only if Where's My Refund directs you to contact us.

IRS phone numbers and tax help options

Your refund may be delayed if your return needs corrections or extra review. If we need more information to process your return, we'll contact you by mail.
