I still have not received my state check and filed in February 2008?

Question

I filed both state and federal electronically through a tax preparer. i did not do this myself. Do i need to contact my tax preparer for a response or can i contact the state directly. i have even just received my additional refund letter for from the federal stating i would receive my refund today. i still have not received in my account but expect to sometime today. My state check was not much money but i thought i would have had the check by now.

Answer 1

did you go online and check the status of your rebate?  This should be able to tell you when its coming, or being deposited into your account.

Answer 2

First you should confirm with your preparer that the state return was "acknowledged" by the state.  Ask them specifically to check that.  Some times state returns get side tracked within the preparers computer system.  If they confirm that the return was acknowledged, which should not take more than a few minutes, you should call the state taxing agency to see what the problem may be.
