Hello all! Are refunds starting to trickle in for everybody? I usually start seeing the first batch of refunds funded around 02/04-02/05 after filing on the IRS open date and haven't seen a single one yet. How about everyone else?

How would I know if a client got their refund already or not?

I use Refund Advantage and can see any refunds coming in for today and 3 days out and have not seen any. Last year my first client refund came in on 02/04 and I was able to see the notification from 01/31/25.

oh ok, I dont use banking products, so unless a client calls me and lets me know, I have no idea when their refund arrives.....I did ask my first dozen or so clients last week that if they think about it, give me a call when they get their refunds, just so Ive got an idea of how long its taking, no calls so far!

Remember any returns with the refundable credits (the Path Act), they wont start sending out those refunds until after the 15th of Feb.

I got this from an IRS newswire email back in January 26:

The IRS expects most refunds for the Earned Income Tax Credit and the Additional Child Tax Credit to be available in bank accounts or on debit cards by March 2, 2026, for taxpayers who chose direct deposit and have no other issues with their returns. Some taxpayers may receive their refund earlier, depending on their financial institution. Where’s My Refund? will provide projected deposit dates for most early EITC/ACTC refund filers by Feb. 21, 2026.
