If you requested that you receive your tax refund via direct deposit, be sure to check your bank statement or online account to ensure that you have not in fact received the refund. If it has been more than 6 months and you have not received your refund, go to the IRS website section entitled “Where’s My Refund” (https://sa2.www4.irs.gov/irfof/lang/en/irfofgetstatus.jsp) to check the status of your tax refund. You will need to enter the following information from your tax return:
- SSN or ITIN
- Filing Status
- The amount of your tax refund (only the dollars, not the cents)
