Question

When will the IRS update my refund status if my refund was accepted on 02/11/21, it is still in processing return? Will I be getting it by this week in my account?

I did my taxes at the end of January and it was accepted by the irs February 11th. It is really important to me to find out if I will be getting the direct deposit on February 24th or not. When I check "where's my refund" it only has received refund on the first bar. I heard it would updated yesterday but it never did for me. I would like to know an estimate date of when I will eventually receive it.

After the tax return has been Accepted by the IRS (meaning only that they received the return) it will be in the Processing mode until the tax refund has been Approved and then an Issue Date will be available on the IRS website.
