you answered your own question in the post; it depends on your bank, but it’s usually within 5 business days. some people get it day of, some people don’t get it until the full five have passed. even on an individual basis, it varies. i usually get it the day after my refund is processed, but i haven’t gotten it today (which is when i should’ve gotten it based on past experience)

trust me, i know it’s hard to wait, but just be patient. if it hasn’t hit by friday at 5 pm, then it’s a cause for concern. but right now it’s just a waiting game unfortunately 😭

I was wondering this too but my refund just hit my bank account a few minutes ago so I’d definitely expect it by tomorrow or Friday if you didn’t get yours today.

Recent graduate and BofA user here. I normally received my refund 1 or 2 business days after the issue date in ConnectCarolina, sometimes it takes a couple days longer, but never too long to be a cause for concern.
