Question
Is it possible to find out where my federal tax refund was deposited?
Answer

Yes, if you need to know where your federal tax refund was deposited, you can initiate a refund trace by using one of the following methods:

If you're trying to verify where your refund was direct deposited because of a dispute over the proceeds, call us and speak to a representative to request assistance. By law, the IRS can't disclose any information to you about someone else’s refund. For example, the IRS can't discuss a refund issued to another taxpayer with you unless you have obtained authorization. If we receive a Form 2848, Power of Attorney and Declaration of Representative or a Form 8821, Tax Information Authorization naming you as the representative or designee, we may provide information to you for that person’s refund.
