Checking The Status Of Refunds For 2011 Taxes

For those who have already filed their 2010 tax return, some may be wondering when they will be getting their tax refund directly deposited into their checking account or delivered to their residence. Checking the status of your return is quite simple today using the online website provided by IRS.gov. Detailed briefly below are a few tips found on this site.

• The best and fastest ways to receive information about the status of one's refund can be found by using the Where's My Refund? option. This tool is available in English as well as Spanish. This option is available to users at all times of the day or night throughout the week. It is a very secure site.

• Of course, those who file their tax returns online will be able to retrieve information faster than those who have mailed in their returns. Electronic filers will be able to check their status within 72 hours of filing; those who have filed by mail will have to wait 3 to 4 weeks before checking.

Checking The Status Of Refunds For 2011 Taxes

• In order to get information, the website will request specific personally identifying data. For this reason, it is best to have a copy of one's return in front of him at this time. He will need to know his Social Security number, whether he filed singly or with his spouse and what was the exact amount of money listed on his return for refund or payment.

• Once one is on this site, he can also find information specific to his circumstances. For example, there are options for use by people who are visually impaired.

• If the IRS has already tried to mail a refund check but the delivery address was wrong, there will be a place on this website where one can change his address.

• For those who do not have access to the Internet, they can call the IRS hotline at 1-800-829-1954. They will need to have the same information from their tax return as those who are checking online.

Checking the status of one's 2011 taxes is easy by using the information at IRS.gov. This is a great place to go if one is wondering if his tax return has yet been received or if he believes he should have already received his refund check. It should also be noted that there are applications for use on smart phones that allow one to check a refund status as well.
