Tax Refund Question and Waiting Time

My DH and I filed a week ago this past Saturday, so 2/11. My sister also filed same day(actually our accountant) did both claims that night and I even got an emai to confirm the e-file. My sister got her refund a week later, 2/18 and we still didn't. Can it be because she files single and us married and joint or is there probably know rhyme or reason to it? When I checked the link to check status under my DH SS# it says should be there by 2/21(that came and went) and my SS# says by 2/28. How if we filed together can we be getting two different approximation dates? Odd, no? Also, did anyone get their refind SOONER than what the online status check showed? ThanksChat Icon

We filed 1/29 and got the refund 2/14.

For about a week, our ss#'s showed two different completion dates as well.

This is the IRS refund cycle chart. It doesn't count if you did a refund anticipation loan with your tax preparer though, it's just the official 'when will i get my refund' chart:

Thanks, said between Feb 9-15 (mine was done Feb 11) was ANTICIPATED by tomorrow, the 22nd but nopeChat Icon, just checked my bank and nothing is pending to go in tonight!

ETA: Before when I was checking the status I was coming up and so was my husband. His was showing around 2/21 and mine around 2/28(makes no sense since we filed together) and now his is still showing up and when I just checked my status they say no record on me, WTF? Now I am confused!

I only do them with the primary number on the account (whichever is first). I don't think it works on the secondary. In my experience the IRS usually deposits on Fridays, I just noticed that chart is saying wednesdays. For my clients that filed on 2/11 I would tell them to expect their refund on Friday 2/24, but if not, then Friday 3/2 because the IRS doesn't guarantee direct deposit dates. If you didn't do direct deposit then the date would be different.

Re: Tax Refund Question and Waiting Time

My sister is a tax preparer and saids there are delays. Keep checking via "wheres my refund" and don't call in. You will waste your time.
