The reasons why these average <strong>direct deposits<\/strong> are so low maybe these 2. One is that many Earned Income Tax Credit &amp; Additional Child Tax Credit refunds have not been issued yet.<\/p>\n<p>Remember that the <strong>IRS<\/strong> cannot pay them before mid-May and many will receive them by March 3, 2025- Another reason may be the fact that there have been fewer refunds received.<\/p>\n<h2>How many recipients have requested the IRS a direct deposit?<\/h2>\n<p>The total number of <strong>direct deposit<\/strong> tax refunds is 13,515,000 as of February 14, 2025.
