How to Get Your Refund Early in 2015 

Want your refund as quick as possible in 2015? We don’t blame you. Follow these steps to receive your refund as quickly as possible;

1. Get Organized: Gather together all your tax information, tax forms, etc. that you’ll need to prepare your tax return. You’ll avoid wasting hours of your time frantically searching for them last minute.

2. Create a RapidTax account: At the start of January, RapidTax will have the 2014 Tax Application aviable for users to enter their 2014 Tax Return information. With that said, create an account on RapidTax at the start of the new year and start entering your tax information.

3. Choose Direct Deposit: If you opt to have your tax refund direct deposited into your account than you’ll probably receive it within 21 days. Avoid having your refund mailed to you via an IRS check, it will take much longer.

4. E-File: Electronically filing is MUCH faster than paper filing. Thanks to sites like RapidTax, you can e-file your taxes with ease, avoid waiting for your tax return and refund to be processed via paper filing (and of course, you’ll be able to skip a trip to the post office).

5. Avoid Mistakes: If you mis-report information on your tax return, the IRS may reject your return or take longer processing your return. Either scenario will cause a delay in getting your refund. To avoid this from happening, double check the information you’ve entered before submitting your tax return.

  1. I got a text saying mine got accepted Feb 4th any ideal to when I might get mine back?? I’ve checked where’s my refund its still on the same spot..

    1. Hi Rachael,
      The IRS does not make any promises on an exact date of when you’ll get your refund, although they do say that 9 out of 10 tax filers will receive their refund within 21 days.
      If you were accepted on Feb.4th, and elected to have your refund direct deposited, I would expect it around Feb. 21st. If you are receiving it by check, it may be sent out around Feb. 24th. These are just estimate dates based on prior year trends.
      Once your “Where’s My Refund?” status changes to “Refund Sent”, the refund is on the way to you.

  2. My tax return was submitted feb.feb2nd and approved feb.5thand it says I should receive my refund via dierect deposit Feb.12th, is this 100% accurate?

    1. I can not say it is 100% accurate because the IRS can give refunds early or later than expected, not to mention, some banks take a few days to process the refund. The IRS advises filers that it can take up to 21 days to receive a refund, however, the date provided is usually pretty accurate.

  3. I filed my taxes on the 26th and was accepted on the 29th but I am still being processed and everyone that I know has there date , I do not understand what is going on, I really need my taxes , does anyone have any insight .

    1. Hi Latrina,
      Did you file with us on RapidTax? If so, you can call us, whenever works best for you during the week 10AM-5PM and we would be more than happy to help you. If you filed with another tax service, I suggest contacting them to ask them what’s going on with your return.
