How Long until i get my federal TaxReturn

NJGrassGuy · 02-02-2012, 12:41 AM

So I did my taxes myself for the first time....used tax act . Com....and it was surprisingly easy....in previous years I took them to H&R Block and the charged me a fee but I got a check 3 days later......this year since I filed on my own I decided to do direct deposit....It said it should take about 3-6 weeks to process.....but this seems like a long time to me,does anybody have experience with this...does it really take that long or can I expect it sooner?....its a very basic return. Married but filing seperatly no dependants no deductions......I'm currently unemployed and I could really use that money so I hopeing it won't be long.......let me hear your opinions/experiences....

I always do an HR block efile....for free, direct deposit, filed last week expecting by the 7th of this month....But I live in a state where all I have to do is the federal tax return, state taxes are paid on goods and services...
