And on top of the philanthropic accomplishment youâve done, you still get a bonus reward of having your donations be eligible for tax deductions. Like I have mentioned earlier, donations to public schools are treated the same when you donate to charity or other nonprofit organizations.
The IRS says it expects to issue more than 9 out of 10 refunds within 21 days, but the fastest way to get a refund is to e-file and choose direct deposit. Even if you file the old-fashioned paper way, having your refund deposited directly into a bank account cuts the time you have to wait for your tax cash.
The IRS has a goal of getting tax refunds to tax payers within 21 days. They reach this goal about 90% of the time. In fact, most people receive their refunds in about 10-14 days. In previous years, the IRS created a schedule for when they will send out federal tax refunds via direct deposit or by check.
