Where's My Refund?

You filed your return, set up the direct deposit and are watching your checking account for the arrival of your tax refund, but it has not arrived. What should you do? With the help of the Internet, it is easier than ever to find out what happened to your refund.
Here is a link to take you to the IRS Web site to find out what happened to your refund:

You will need your social security number, filing status, and the amount of your refund. The IRS will quickly give you a status. If your refund has been waylaid somewhere, they will give you a phone number to call to find out what is happening.

Massachusetts has a similar program that requires you to register and set up a user name and password. The link for this service is:
