    Well ... did the IRS/State release the refund yet ?   Did you check the routing & account number with your bank for accuracy ? 

     

    Does this IRS "Where's My Refund" tool say your funds have actually been sent?

    Were you having the refund direct deposited to your bank account directly ?


    If the IRS has actually sent the funds, the IRS FAQ page says to allow "up to 5 days" due to variations in bank processing procedures and times.

    If so did you enter the correct routing & account number for an ACH transfer ?  Here is how you can see your deposit information:

    Your direct deposit information will be at the bottom of your Form 1040.

    Please see the following FAQ article below if you entered in the wrong bank account information.

    Did you have the TT fees withheld from the federal refund and are getting the refund on the Turbo Tax Debit card?

    If so the refund needs to go from the IRS to the third party bank to the card.  This process can take up to 3 business days or more.
