  • Select ID type from the drop down.

Generally, refund timeframes are seven to eight weeks for e-filed returns and 10 to 11 weeks for paper returns. There are some exceptions. For more information, please visit Idaho State Tax Commission website.

For first time filers it takes about three weeks to enter new filers into the system. Until that time, refund updates will report your return as “not entered in system.” Add those three weeks to the estimates above to determine your refund timeline.
