Generally, the IRS sends out their Direct Deposits on THURSDAYS, so that they are credited to the apprpriate accounts by Fridays. There are times when the refund gets sent early, but this is rare. They have deposit cycles. If a return is acknowledged by the IRS by noon on Wednesday, the earliest the refund is expected to be in the taxpayer's account is the Friday 9 days later.
While the IRS will release those refunds on February 15 many taxpayers may not see the funds deposit into their banking accounts for a few days afterward. This additional delay could be for many reasons and it is best for taxpayers to check the IRSâs Whereâs My Refund website for any funding updates.
