If you claimed the Earned Income Tax Credit or the Additional Child Tax Credit and are wondering where your refund is, don’t panic. You can expect to get your refund by March 3 if:
• You filed your return online
• You chose to get your refund by direct deposit
• We found no issues with your return
However, some taxpayers may see their refunds a few days earlier. Check Where’s My Refund for your personalized refund date. Visit here for more info: www.irs.gov/refundtiming
