The two most pressing question of an early tax filer is either ”where is my refund?” or ”when to expect my refund?”. 2018 taxes have come to an end by the April 15 deadline. However, if you filed for an extension, you will have time until October 15 this year. So if you’ve filed your tax return and expecting a return, you can track down the status of your refund by clicking the below link.
Now, if you’re wondering about the tax refund schedule for 2020 tax year, no changes have been made by the IRS yet but there hasn’t been any change to it since last year. So this should give you an idea of what you can expect.
Here is something to keep in mind in the meanwhile, for more than 9 out of 10 taxpayers, the IRS issued their refunds in less than 21 days from the day tax return is received. The IRS is really fast and efficient at this so even if your refund is a little late, there is no need to rush things out. You can see the 2020 Refund Schedule below.
