Direct deposit is a FREE and easy way to receive your tax refund faster than a paper check! Avoid waiting by the mailbox, making extra trips, and paying extra fees just so you can cash or deposit your tax refund. Best of all, receiving your tax refund through direct deposit means the money is automatically deposited to your account so that you can access and use the funds from your refund.

We do not have the status of your tax refund. However, you can get an update on the status of your refund through the IRS by:

• Visiting www.irs.gov/refunds and going to “Check My Refund Status”
• Downloading the IRS2Go App for your mobile device.
• Calling the IRS Refund Hotline at (800) 829-1954.

No, the tax deposit must be in the name of the cardholder.

In accordance with IRS guidelines, you may direct your refund to your card, but cannot direct your refund to someone else’s card. If we receive a tax refund intended for someone other than the cardholder, the refund will be rejected, your card may be blocked, and the money may be returned to the IRS.
