I filed my taxes January 27th. Accepted on the 28th. It’s been roughly 18 days and still no return. Is something wrong?

This is a question we see regularly and, to be honest, the timing the IRS distributes refunds seems kind of random and, often, hard to predict.  Sorry you have not received your refund yet.I know it is frustrating.  

Most people will get their refunds within 21 days of e-filing their tax return.  However, that is not a hard and fast rule. 

Take a look at the articles below about what might cause delays and how to best track your tax refund.
