When Will My Tax Refund Be Mailed ?

There are several ways to get a tax refund. One is you can request the tax department to mail a check to you and provide the name and bank details. Or, you can also ask them to credit the refund directly to your bank account. The latter procedure is fast, and the money comes to your bank account within a week. If you have asked for a check in the mail, then it could take around three weeks to reach you. If you have opted for a direct deposit, then it takes 15 days and if you opt for a paper check, then it takes 21 days for the check to be issued.
