If you think it’s taking too much time for your refund, there could be a delay. Common reasons for a delay include an incorrect Social Security number, typos, incorrect banking information, and math mistakes.

We recommend e-filing as delays happen more often with paper returns.

Before calling the Contact Center:

  • Give it 4 to 6 weeks for your refund for e-filed returns and 8 to 10 weeks for paper returns or to receive
  • A request from DOR for more information.

The Contact Center can be reached at (617) 887-6367 from 9am to 4pm Monday through Friday.
