I did my taxes with turbo tax over a month ago. It says on turbo tax that it went though but when I go on the irs website it says pending. I thought it only takes 30 days to get your tax money back.

    Until the IRS starts processing your tax return it will be in pending sometimes the status can take several weeks to change. TurboTax does not receive updates from the IRS once they have accepted your return but we can provide information about estimated refund processing times. According to the IRS website What to expect for Refunds This Year more than 9 out of 10 refunds are issued in less than 21 days after the IRS accepts the tax return when you e-file and choose direct deposit as your refund choice. 

    Keep checking Where’s My Refund? has the most up to date information available about your refund. The tool is updated daily (usually overnight) so you will just usually need to check once a day and currently is the only way to check on a refund: https://www.irs.gov/newsroom/irs-operations-during-covid-19-mission-critical-functions-continue
