A: If you accidentally sent your tax refund to someone else on Cash App, you may be able to request a refund of the payment. However, it will depend on a few factors, such as whether the recipient has already accepted the payment or withdrawn the funds.

To request a refund on Cash App, you can follow these steps:

Open the Cash App on your mobile device.

Tap on the clock icon on the home screen to view your transaction history.

Find the transaction in question and tap on it to view the details.

Tap on the "..." icon in the top-right corner of the screen.

Tap on "Refund" and follow the on-screen instructions.

If the recipient has already accepted the payment or withdrawn the funds, it may not be possible to request a refund through Cash App. In this case, you may want to contact the recipient directly and ask them to return the funds to you.

It is also important to be cautious when sending money through mobile payment apps like Cash App. Always double-check the recipient's information before sending any payments to avoid mistakes or fraudulent transactions.
