Check the Status of Your Income Tax Refund

ONLINE:

• Click on TSC-IND to reach the Welcome Page
• Select Check the Status of Your Refund found on the left side of the Welcome Page.

• You must have your social security number (or your spouse’s social security number if it is a joint return and your spouse’s number is entered first on the return) and the exact amount of the refund request as reported on your Connecticut income tax return. Enter the whole dollar amount of the refund you requested. (Do not include cents.)  For example, if you requested a refund of $375, enter 375.

NOTE: Please be aware that for all direct deposit refunds you must allow at least two business days after the date the refund is processed for the credit to be in the account.

TELEPHONE:

• Call our automated refund system 24 hours a day and check the status of your refund by calling 800-382-9463 (Connecticut calls outside the Greater Hartford calling area only) or 860-297-5962 (from anywhere).  You will need your social security number (or your spouse’s social security number if it is a joint return and your spouse’s number is entered first on the return) and the exact amount of the refund request as reported on your income tax return. Enter the whole dollar amount of the refund you requested followed by the # sign. (Do not include cents.)  For example, if you requested a refund of $375, enter 375#.  You can only check the status of the refund for the current filing season by telephone. 

Paper Returns: Due to the volume during the filing season, it takes 10 - 12 weeks to process paper returns. Until the return is processed, your return will not appear on our computer system and we will not be able to check its status or to give you information about your refund. NOTE: Please consider using one of the electronic filing options. Visit our Online Filing Page for more information.

Please Note: Even if you have an established payment plan with the Department, please understand that any refund due you from the IRS and or State of Connecticut will be applied to your bill and it is not considered your monthly installment.

More than 12 Weeks Since You Filed? If you mailed the return more than 12 weeks ago and have not received your refund or any other correspondence from DRS about your return, please contact DRS during business hours at 860-297-5962.

Refund FAQ's: Review the Refund answers in the Taxpayer Answer Center.

A Suggestion for filing your next income tax return: Most Connecticut taxpayers can use one of these paperless filing methods. Please consider one of these options when you file your next Connecticut income tax return. Visit our Online Filing Page for more information.

Please note that in the best interest of all taxpayers, the Colorado Department of Revenue implements measures to detect and prevent identity theft related refund fraud. Please be aware that these measures, meant to ensure state tax dollars are going to the right person, could delay individual income tax refunds. If you have received a letter requesting that you verify your identity and/or tax return details, it is important that you promptly respond to the letter.

Check Refund Status Online

You can check the status of your refund on Revenue Online. There is no need to login. Simply choose the option "Where's My Refund for Individuals" in the box labeled "Refund Resources". Then, enter your SSN or ITIN and the refund amount you claimed on your current year's income tax return. If you do not know the refund amount you claimed, you may either use a Letter ID number from a recent income tax correspondence from the Department.

You will receive the Letter ID within 7-10 business days. After we have received and processed your return, we will provide you with an updated status as the refund moves through our system. It may take a few days for an updated status to appear. Please check back often to verify where your return/refund may be in our process.

The information in Revenue Online is the same information available to our Call Center representatives. You can get the information without waiting on hold.

Frequently Asked Questions

I can't check the status. What do I do?

Please verify the refund amount you have entered and verify that you are using the primary SSN for the return/refund. You may want to try using a Letter ID instead of the refund amount.

You have not updated the status of my refund in a while. When will I receive it?

Each return processes through multiple steps. We recommend you file electronically and include all documentation to ensure we can process your return/refund as quickly as possible. Please check back on the status daily. If we require additional information, we will contact you through U.S. Postal Service mail.

I received a "Validation Key" letter. Will that delay my refund?

In the best interest of all our taxpayers, the Colorado Department of Revenue implements measures to detect and prevent identity theft-related refund fraud.  The Department has a "Validation Key" process where information will be requested to be entered on Revenue Online to validate their Colorado refund. Please be aware that if you do not respond to the validation key letter in a timely manner your refund will be delayed. Visit the Identity Verification web page for more information.
