READING YOUR STATUS

Accepted, approved, and sent mean different things.

01 / Accepted

The IRS received the electronic return. It has not necessarily approved the refund.

02 / Approved

The IRS approved a refund and may provide an expected issue date.

03 / Sent

The IRS sent the refund. Your bank or the mail may need more time to deliver it.

If your refund amount changed or the tracker directs you to contact the IRS, review your IRS notice. Above Financial cannot see or change your IRS status through this page.
