    What are you looking for?  Your state refund?  Or a copy of your state tax return?

     

     

    Federal and state refunds come from completely separate entities,  There is no rule as to which one will come first or how much time there will be between their arrivals.  Some states process returns quickly and some are very slow.

     

    STATE RETURN

    Make sure your state return was accepted:  https://turbotax.intuit.com/tax-tools/efile-status-lookup/

     

    To track your state refund:

      You have to access your own account and/or  print it for yourself using exactly the same account and user ID that you used when you prepared the return.

     

    Start a 2024 return online and enter some personal information  so that the menu on the left opens up and lets you access your past year returns.

    Many people have multiple TT accounts and forget how to access them.  Log out of the account you are in now.

    Or did you use the desktop version of TurboTax?  If so, the files are on your own hard drive or any backup device you used like a flash drive.

    You can get a free transcript from the IRS or for a fee of $30, an actual copy of your tax return.

    SAVE YOUR TAX RETURNS !

     

    EVERY year before mid-October you should save a copy of your tax return as a pdf and print a copy of it for your records.  That way you will not be searching online frantically when you need it for a lender, FAFSA forms, your next tax return, etc.
