If you’re waiting for a tax refund and relying on the IRS’s Where’s My Refund (WMR) tool (https://bit.ly/3xJoEi1), listen up. WMR generally provides current information about your refund status and amount and typically is updated every 24 hours (usually overnight). If you think WMR is displaying inaccurate data, keep in mind that a letter may be on its way to you requesting additional details needed to process your tax return and approve a refund. Or the IRS may be sending you a letter explaining why your refund amount is different from what you expected. You can rely on WMR information to be accurate, but the IRS advises you to wait for an explanatory letter before calling the tax agency.
