If I have filed a revised return, do I need to e-verify the original return or the previous return as well?
Hi @Joe_Fernandes,
If you are filing a revised return, you can only verify the latest revised return. If the previous versions of revised returns or original return is not verified, it will ve deemed to be invalid and won’t be processed by the ITD.
e-verification using Aadhaar OTP is the most widely used and fastest method to verify your return.
Hi,
I had filed and e-verified my return in November 2021. I still haven’t received my refund and got the same email. Do I need to do anything? and how long until I get my refund?
Hey @Nihal,
In case you have successfully e-verified the return, you do not need to worry and can ignore the email.
Usually, the refund takes 6-9 weeks from the ITR being processed. However, it may vary based on the case-to-case basis.
You can track your refund using this tool
Hope this helps
