Bank rejected DD refund - How long for paper check after IRS reissue?
My refund was approved April 5 for direct deposit but my bank rejected it and sent it back to the IRS. Anyone know how long I have to wait now for them to mail me a paper check instead? Getting really frustrated since I was already approved and now im back to waiting again.

When a bank rejects a direct deposit, the IRS typically takes 2-3 weeks to process and mail out a paper check. The check will be sent to the address on your tax return. Make sure your address is current with USPS. You can check Where's My Refund tool for updates, it should show updated status once they process the paper check.

hey guys instead of playing the guessing game with WMR, I started using taxr.ai to check my transcript. Its only $1 and tells you exactly whats happening and when to expect the check. Way better than trying to decode all those transaction codes ourselves. https://taxr.ai

Called IRS yesterday about this exact thing. They said 4-6 weeks is standard wait time for paper check after DD rejection. But tbh could be faster depending on your location
