When will I receive my refund money?

PriorTax is not in control of when you receive your refund money. As soon as you file your return it is out of our hands and entirely dependent on the IRS. Typically e-filers who request a direct deposit can expect their money in 8 to 15 days, e-filers who request a paper check 2 to 3 weeks, and paper filers up to 8 weeks. To find out how long your refund specifically is going to take, use the IRS tool Where’s My Refund?
