While the Internal Revenue Service began accepting returns late last month, it still might be too early to expect a refund in your bank account. Luckily, you can track the status of your refund through the IRS’s “Where’s My Refund” tool.

A tax refund is a reimbursement to taxpayers who have overpaid their income taxes, and so the government sends the money back. If taxpayers receive a large refund, they may well be having too much withheld from their paychecks by employers.
