What is the process for getting a tax refund?

To receive a tax refund in New Mexico, you must file a state tax return either electronically or by mail. Once your return is processed, the Taxation and Revenue Department will review it to determine if you are eligible for a refund. If approved, the refund will be issued either by direct deposit or check. It typically takes around 6-8 weeks for refunds to be processed and sent out. It is important to make sure your return is accurate and complete to minimize any delays in receiving your refund. If you have any questions about your refund status, you can check online or contact the department for assistance.
