Where’s My Tax Refund? IRS2Go vs the IRS Online Refund Tracker
For most taxpayers, the IRS Online Refund Tracker is the better first stop, while IRS2Go is best for quick checks from a phone. Both tools pull from the same IRS refund system, so neither one usually has secret extra details. The IRS says most refunds are issued in less than 21 days when a return is filed electronically and direct deposit is chosen [source: IRS].
