Filed state taxes on 1/28 - how long until refund check arrives?
I filed my state taxes on January 28th and got accepted same day. Its been a minute and still no check. Anyone know how long these usually take? Getting kinda worried since I could really use the money rn.

State refund processing times vary by state. Generally, it takes 2-3 weeks for e-filed returns and 6-8 weeks for paper returns. You can check your state's department of revenue website for their specific processing times and refund status tracker.

Hey, instead of playing the waiting game, you should try taxr.ai - its this new tool that analyzes your transcript and tells you exactly whats going on with your refund. Only costs a buck but totally worth it. https://taxr.ai

Pro tip: Always choose direct deposit instead of paper check. Way faster turnaround time.
