4473.0. "web page for tax refund checking on mailing?" by SUBSYS::MSOUCY (MentalmETALMike) Fri Feb 14 1997 08:24

    
    Does anyone know of the webpage for checking on federal tax refunds? I
    had it once awhile back (1+ yrs I think) and I haven't been able to
    locate it using altavista (yet). Or if someone has it, I'd appreciate a
    pointer to it.
    
    Thanks in advance,

Well, the IRS page is http://www.irs.ustreas.gov/
But I don't know of any "refund status" page.

4473.2there is/was one last year/year before...SUBSYS::MSOUCYMentalmETALMikeFri Feb 14 1997 10:0815
    
    I've been there this morning. I found this last year or the year before
    and it asks you three questions for verification. One being your name,
    your social sec. #, and the amount expected on your refund. It then
    shows the expected mailing date which they were doing on fridays. I
    just wanted to check my status since someone here already says they
    have received both state and fed. refunds and I mailed mine in at
    around the same timeframe (1/28/97) and received state refund on 2/4/97
    which was the FASTEST I've ever gotten a refund back! I was hoping Fed.
    would be here this week, probably next week if not today/tomorrow. I
    want to find that page and write it down in my notebook to put it on
    navigator at home and have a hard copy of the address.

I just checked the IRS page and I found at

http://www.irs.ustreas.gov/plain/elec_svs/auto-ref.html

that you can check status of refunds by phone: 1-800-829-4477, but they 
recommend that you have your return with you since they'll ask you 
for SS#, filing status and exact refund amount.

BTW, it says to allow for 6 weeks if mailed, 3 if submitted 
electronically.
