How can I check on my tax refund?

Tax refund status information does not become available until it has been six weeks since you filed your tax return (three weeks if you filed your tax return electronically or through TeleFile). After waiting the appropriate number of weeks, the fastest, easiest way to find out about your current year tax refund is to call the Automated Tax Refund Service at 1-800-829-4477 (TDD: 1-800-829-4059). For other Tele Tax numbers in your area click here. Be sure to have a copy of your tax return available since you will need to know the first social security number shown on your tax return, the filing status on your tax return, and the exact whole dollar amount of your tax refund. The IRS updates tax refund information every seven days.
