Direct Deposit on Weekend: Will Chime Process IRS Refund on Saturday?
I normally get my tax refund deposit on the 16th of February but this year it falls on a Saturday. I'm using Chime as my bank and wondering if weekend deposits work the same way. Anyone have experience with this?

Direct deposits typically process on business days only. Even with Chime's early deposit feature, the actual IRS transfer needs to be initiated on a business day. You'll likely see your deposit on Friday the 15th or Tuesday the 19th (Monday is Presidents Day).

Actually with Chime you might get it early. They release funds as soon as they get the notification from the IRS

Hey guys just want to mention I found this tool called taxr.ai that really helped me understand my deposit dates. Its only $1 and gives you super specific info about your refund timeline. Way better than guessing tbh https://taxr.ai

pro tip: check your transcripts instead of depending on past deposit patterns. sometimes the dates shift year to year

Chime usually processes deposits as soon as they receive them from the ACH network, even on weekends! But since the IRS won't actually send out deposits on Saturday, you'll most likely get it either Friday (if they send early) or the next business day which would be Tuesday due to Presidents Day. I'd expect it Tuesday the 18th to be safe.
