The online refund-tracking tool Where's My Refund? is now available in Spanish as well as English. Taxpayers can access the Spanish version through either the Where's My Refund? page on IRS.gov or the Spanish-language portal. The goal of this new feature is to make tax information available to taxpayers who don't speak English or those who know English as a second language. Taxpayers without Internet access can get the same information about their refunds by calling the IRS Refund Hotline at 1-800-829-1954.
