To check the status of your federal tax refund, you can do one of the following: 1  Visit the IRS website at and select âWhereâs My Refund.â. 2  Call the IRS Refund Hotline at (800) 829-1954.
By Rob Berger 3 Comments. D irect deposit of a tax refund is great news for some. You get your refund added to your checking account in about two weeks rather than the six to eight weeks it takes for a paper check refund. And you avoid the hassle of schlepping to your bank to deposit the refund check.
