A tax refund is money back from the government when you've paid more in taxes during the year than your actual tax liability. This typically happens through employer withholdings from your paycheck.
Consider contributing to retirement accounts, claiming eligible deductions, and taking advantage of tax credits like the Earned Income Tax Credit or Child Tax Credit.
Most refunds are issued within 21 days when filed electronically. Refunds with EITC or CTC may take longer (until mid-February). Use the IRS "Where's My Refund?" tool to track your payment.
