(Salem) - The Oregon Department of Revenue is pleased that its popular Web site where taxpayers can check the status of their refunds is now up and running.

"Where's My Refund?" provides 2005 Oregon refund information to taxpayers whenever they want it," said Joan Linn, Tax Services manager. "Information about refunds and processing is also available at this site."

To retrieve the information from the secure Web site, taxpayers will need their Social Security number (either taxpayer's if a joint return); filing status—single, married filing separately or jointly, head of household, or qualifying widow(er); and the exact whole-dollar amount of their refund from their return.

Taxpayers may also check their refund status through the automated telephone system. Call (503) 378-4988 (Salem) or (800) 356-4222 (toll-free from an Oregon prefix).

Both methods are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
