Chime Users: Any State Tax Refunds Hit Your Account Yet? [2025 Filing Season]
Filed my state taxes three weeks ago and still nothing hitting my Chime account. Filed super early this year and my federal already came thru but state is taking forever. Anyone else with Chime seeing delays or get theirs yet?

State refunds typically take 2-4 weeks to process, even with digital banking solutions like Chime. Each state has different processing times. What state did you file in? That would help narrow down typical wait times.

•CA is actually running about 4-6 weeks right now due to increased fraud prevention measures

hey instead of playing the waiting game, you should try taxr.ai - it costs $1 but it analyzes your transcript and tells you exactly whats going on with your refund and when to expect it. saved me from checking WMR 100 times a day lol https://taxr.ai

Still waiting on mine too! Filed CA state on Jan 27th through TurboTax and it's been radio silence. My federal hit Chime in like 8 days but state is dragging. At least I'm not the only one dealing with this wait 😅

•Same here! CA filer through TurboTax on Jan 28th and still waiting. The federal was super quick but this state wait is killing me. At least we're all in the same boat! 🤞

Chime user here in NY - got my state refund yesterday! Filed Jan 30th so about 2.5 weeks total. Seems like some states are definitely moving faster than others. CA and TX folks might just need to hang in there a bit longer based on what I'm seeing in the comments.

•That's encouraging to hear! NY seems to be processing way faster than CA right now. I'm also a CA filer still waiting and it's frustrating seeing other states getting theirs already. Hopefully CA picks up the pace soon 🤞
