Refunds for returns filed prior to 3/1/16 are expected to be issued within two to three weeks of 3/1/16. For returns filed on or after 3/1/16, the SCDOR expects to issue refunds within two to three weeks of the date the return was submitted.  We request your patience in this process. You can check the status of your refund here. Refund status becomes available when your refund is processing not necessarily when the SCDOR receives your return.
