Below are a couple of IRS look-up tools that should be useful to you and your taxpayers during the 2012 Filing Season:
Where's My Refund?
Remember that the information for a taxpayer’s refund status and when it will be direct deposited or mailed will not be available until 72 hours after the return has been accepted.
Also, this tool will indicate why a refund has been reduced (the taxpayer owed money to the IRS, a state, child support, etc.). Learn More
First Time Homebuyer Credit Account Look-Up
This tool is for taxpayers who need to repay the (up to) $7,500 credit received in 2008. This tool replaces the reminder letter that the IRS sent last year.
Affected taxpayers will need their SSN, Date of Birth, Street Address, and Zip code from the latest return they have filed in order to log in. Learn More
