How to get a faster and secured Tax Return.

The Internal Revenue Service reported that most early tax filers choose to use direct deposit for their refunds.

Washington (PRWEB) December 31, 2005 -- New IRS data found that 70 percent of this year's refunds were being deposited directly to a bank account. As of Feb. 22, there were more than 20 million direct deposit refunds, an 11.6 percent increase from nearly 18 million at the same time last year.

"Direct Deposit is fast, safe and convenient," IRS Commissioner Charles O. Rossotti said. "You can use it whether you file electronically or on paper. It also saves tax dollars - it costs less than sending a paper check."

Taxpayers who combine e-filing of their returns with direct deposit of their refunds can get their money in as soon as 10 days, with the average being about 14 days. Paper return filers generally get their direct deposit refund within four weeks, although that wait time gets longer for those who file close to the April 15 deadline.

The IRS says that more taxpayers are choosing direct deposit as the way to get their federal tax refunds. The payment is more secure - there is no check to get lost. And, it's more convenient - no special trip to the bank to deposit a check! To request direct deposit, follow the instructions for "Refund" on your tax return.

Nearly 34 million people had their tax refunds deposited directly into their bank accounts during the 2001 filing season, a 15 percent increase from the year before. Choosing direct deposit is the best way to guard against having a tax refund misplaced or stolen.

Open a Direct Deposit checking account even if you currently have a problem with Telecheck or Chexsystem.
