CA State Tax Refund Timeline - Filed Jan 27th

Filed my California state taxes and got accepted on Jan 27th. Anyone know the typical turnaround time for state refunds? Getting antsy waiting for that money to hit my account lol

Carmen Lopez

CA typically processes returns within 2-3 weeks for e-filed returns. If you filed on the 27th, you should see your refund by mid-February assuming there are no issues. You can check your refund status on the CA FTB website.

Google 'CA where's my refund' - it's the first link. You'll need your SSN and refund amount
