Reply To: NJ Refund? Did anyone get a date yet?

[RHelg80]

NJ has ludicrously decided to delay the issuing of refunds to “March 1st or later” this year.

Regardless of how I feel about that (which is all negative), March 1st is in 2 days. I have to imagine they have been processing returns all this time, queuing them up to deposit where refunds are due, but I haven’t heard anything, and my return is very straightforward.

Has anyone gotten a date yet from the NJ Refund Status site? I’m really concerned now as I need this money. :/

The site is here: https://www16.state.nj.us/TYTR_TGI_INQ/jsp/prompt.jsp

They have definitely had my return for weeks.

Same:

We approved your refund in the amount of $X to be deposited into your bank account on 03/07/17. It can take up to five days to show in your bank account. If your refund doesn’t show in your bank account after 5 days, check the bank routing and account number reported on the bottom of your New Jersey state tax return.

If you have more than one bank account, make sure you are looking at the deposit information for the correct account (e.g. savings vs checking.)

If the bank routing and account number reported on your New Jersey state tax return is incorrect, contact the bank to find out what you should do next.

If you signed up for a refund anticipation loan or rapid refund, you should contact the business you had file your New Jersey state return.

If your bank account was closed after you filed your New Jersey state tax return, the bank will return the refund to us. We will send you a paper refund check through the mail, to the address listed on your New Jersey state tax return. Please allow 4 to 6 weeks for this process to be completed.
