First, check your e-file status to see if your return was accepted:

Once your federal return has been accepted by the IRS, only the IRS has any control.  TurboTax does not receive any updates from the IRS. Your ONLY source of information about your refund now is the IRS.

 

You need your filing status, your Social Security number and the exact amount  (line 35a of your 2021 Form 1040) of your federal refund to track your Federal refund:

To track your state refund:

If you chose to have your TurboTax fees deducted from your federal refund, that will take some extra time, while the third party bank handles the refund processing.

OR——if you filed by mail, expect a long wait.   It is taking the very backlogged IRS six to nine months to process mailed returns.   Until a human opens your envelope and enters the data into the system, nothing will even show up on the refund site, so you will have to be very patient.

It was accepted on January 19th, 2023… I’ve been checking with the IRS but no updates as of now. How long does it take is what I’m asking? Do you know how long? I filed DD and to have it deducted from my taxes. I’ve already read so many automated messages.

@dmoore154 Please scroll up again and READ.    TurboTax cannot tell you when your refund is coming.  TT gets no information.   If you are getting EIC or additional child tax credit you will not get your refund before end of February.
