These figures have been compared to the one in the previous year. The exact date was March 22, 2024.<\/p>\n<p>In this way, taxpayers can see how much have <strong>2025 tax refunds<\/strong> changed if compared to the amounts in the previous year. For your information, the <strong>IRS<\/strong> has confirmed that 79,616,000 had been received by March 21, 2025. That is about 1.1% less than in 2024.<\/p>\n<h2>IRS updated average direct deposits<\/h2>\n<p>As of March 21, 2025, the <strong>average direct deposit<\/strong> refund amount is $3,284. This average amount has a tendency to decrease as the <strong>2025 Tax Season unfolds<\/strong>. As of March 14, 2025, it was $3,330.<\/p>\n<p>Thus, the new <strong>average direct deposit<\/strong> amount is slightly smaller. The average direct deposit amount as of March 22, 2024, was $3,152. Hence, it is good news for Americans taxpayers who are receiving more money so far.<\/p>\n<p>In fact, the <strong>IRS<\/strong> has refunded the total amount of<strong> $176.591 billion<\/strong> through direct deposits. That represents a staggering 6.1% more than in 2024, whose total amount refunded with direct deposit was $166.424 billion.<\/p>\n<h2>IRS updated the average refund amount<\/h2>\n<p>The <strong>average refund<\/strong> amount is <strong>$3,221<\/strong> as of March 21, 2025. Again, the <strong>IRS<\/strong> has good news for millions of taxpayers because the average refund in 2025 is 4.6 percent higher than in 2024.<\/p>\n<p>In total, the <strong>IRS<\/strong> has refunded<strong> $179.469 billion<\/strong> in 2025. If the amount refunded with <strong>direct deposit<\/strong> is $176.591 billion, the rest will be for those who have not requested direct deposits.<\/p>\n<p>What has drastically dropped is the number of taxpayers who have used the <strong>IRS<\/strong> website. Fewer taxpayers have hired a tax professional too. Actually, 40,120,000 taxpayers have chosen a tax professional to file their 2024 tax return.<\/p>\n<p>If you have not filed your <strong>2024 tax return<\/strong> yet, you will have to do so before the <strong>April 15, 2025<\/strong>, deadline is over.
