Updated for filing 2021 tax returns
Because the IRS is separate from your state’s Department of Revenue, sometimes you will receive your federal refund before your state refund, or vice versa.
If your state refund is taking longer to arrive than your federal refund, remember that each state has its own processing protocols and security measures, some of which may require more time than the federal process.
Want to check on the status of your state refund? Go to your state’s government website to find more information.
