The IRS does not have specific days designated for mailing out refund checks, as the timing can vary based on several factors, including the method of filing and the complexity of the return. Generally, taxpayers who e-file and choose direct deposit can expect their refunds within 21 days, while those who file paper returns may wait longer. Refunds are processed continuously rather than on specific days, so it’s best to check the IRS "Where's My Refund?" tool for real-time updates.
The IRS typically sends refund checks in the mail within 21 days of processing a tax return if it was filed electronically and there are no issues. For paper returns, refunds may take longer, potentially up to six weeks or more. Refunds are sent via mail if the taxpayer chose to receive a paper check instead of direct deposit. It's important to check the IRS website or use the "Where’s My Refund?" tool for specific updates on individual refunds.

It is important to know that you are not guaranteed a federal tax refund. If you believe you will receive a refund after filing your taxes, you can check your status about three days after you file to confirm whether or not your file was accepted or not from the IRS if you do it online or a couple of weeks if you mail it in. You can go to "where's my Refund" on the IRS website to track your refund as well. Refunds generally take longer to receive the closer to tax deadline (April 15th) as well.
