Refunds
I want to..
- Check my Refund Status
- Get help on an Intercepted Refund
- File Injured Spouse Claim
- Get help on a Lost or Never Received Refund
When should I get my refund?
How soon taxpayers receive their refund depends on how and when they file their return.
- Most electronic filers can expect their refunds in about seven to 14 business days.
- Paper filers have a longer wait depending on when they file. The table below shows the approximate time it takes to receive a refund based on the month a return is filed.
If the department does not send out a refund within a specified period of time, interest will be paid on taxpayers' refund checks. However, these timelines apply only if a return is complete, correct, received by the April 15th deadline, and not under a review.
