United States citizens know that they have to send their Tax Return to the IRS every year. This documentation is mandatory for practically all Americans, as very few are exempt from it. Therefore, any assistance we can get when sending the documentation is welcome.
And in the case of the State of California, Americans can get help from the IRS to send in their tax return documents in the best possible way. If we send these documents in on time and do them properly, we will be able to get our tax refund sooner. That’s why it’s so important to check whether we are eligible for this kind of help.
The State of California is not the only one that can receive this type of help, since the IRS is updating the entire system of sending documentation in order to speed up the tax process. However, in order to access this system of sending documentation we must be eligible.
What is the best way to send my Tax Return to the IRS in California?
The system that the IRS offers for sending Tax Return documents in California as well as in other states is Direct File. Through Direct File we will be able to have direct access to all the necessary documents to be able to fill them out and send them.

Once we send the documentation through Direct File, the IRS will check everything more quickly, since it is a much faster system. This means we will get our tax return sooner if we are eligible to get one.
If our state has access to Direct File and we can use it, we should not hesitate. This way of sending the documentation is much faster and more agile than doing it through the physical format.
When will the IRS Tax Refund arrive?
The exact day we will get the Tax Refund does not exist, since each Tax Return has its verification process. Even so, the IRS warns that we will have to wait about three weeks from the time we send the documentation. And this is exclusively in the case of sending our documents electronically.
If we are concerned that our tax refund is taking a long time, we can always use the tool Where’s my refund. Thanks to this tool we will be able to check the status of our tax refund.
