When will my refund status show up?
Taxpayers generally observe the status after the state’s minimum waiting period for their filing method.
What if the status doesn’t change or your refund never arrives?
In such scenarios, use the Undeliverable Refund Search — if you’re waiting on a mailed check and suspect it was returned to the state. In case of seeing no progress after the window for the filing method, the return might be in extra processing or the state may be reviewing a follow-up item.
Do you need NJ Tax Portal or NJ ONRS for refund tracking?
No. Refund tracking leverages a separate inquiry tool. NJ Tax Portal is for specific filings and payment. And NJ ONRS is for responding to notices.
What if your direct deposit refund didn’t arrive?
If a taxpayer chooses direct deposit and the amount doesn’t show up, the matter is generally the bank details. New Jersey says it isn’t responsible when the wrong account information is entered.
If the bank rejects the deposit, like when an account was closed, the funds get returned and the state mails a paper check to the address shown on the return. If a preparer used a refund loan or fee-withdrawal product, the deposit might go to the preparer’s bank first.
