I files already. My federal was accepted. My state was rejected. I have not received my federal return yet. Why?

Your tax return is the form you send to the government that shows your income and calculates your tax. The money the government sends back to you is your refund.

 

Not receiving your federal refund is not because of your state tax return being rejected. The IRS is severely backlogged this year, and federal refunds are taking much longer than usual. It might be several months before you get your federal refund.
