Did you e-file your tax return and was it accepted?
Only the IRS and your State control when and if a Federal or State tax refund is Approved and Issued.

You complete your tax return by finishing all 3 Steps in the File section.  In Step 3, to e-file your tax return, you must click on the large Orange button labeled "Transmit my returns now".

After completing the File section and e-filing your tax return you will receive two emails from TurboTax.  The first email when your tax return was transmitted and the second email when the tax return has either been accepted or rejected.

Use this TurboTax website to check the status of an e-filed return and if it was either accepted or rejected - <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="https://turbotax.intuit.com/tax-tools/efile-status-lookup/">https://turbotax.intuit.com/tax-tools/efile-status-lookup/</a>
If accepted by the IRS use the federal tax refund website to check the refund status - <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="https://www.irs.gov/refunds">https://www.irs.gov/refunds</a>
If accepted by the state use this TurboTax support FAQ to check the state tax refund status - <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="https://ttlc.intuit.com/questions/1899433-how-do-i-track-my-state-refund">https://ttlc.intuit.com/questions/1899433-how-do-i-track-my-state-refund</a>

Thank you for answering me. I e- filed for State and Federal taxes and they both were accepted. The Estimated federal refund date was at 15th of April. I filled for direct deposit, but still wainting. I'm not american citizen and I'm not in USA for that reason I'm worried is it everything okay. Otherwise, dkw, i can not check the refund status of my taxes. Sorry, if I wasted you time and I'm very thankful that you are helping me!

When checking the refund status on the IRS website for a federal tax refund, you Must enter exactly the Social Security number, Filing Status and the whole dollar amount of the federal tax refund as shown on your federal tax return, Form 1040. The same for the state tax refund, you must use the information requested on the state tax refund website that was entered on the state tax return which was filed and accepted by the state.
For a direct deposit of a tax refund the bank being used must be a US bank located in the US.

If your return was accepted less than 21 days ago, hang in there. It can take anywhere from a few days to 3 weeks to go from acceptance to approval.

For the most up to date information on your refund, you can track your federal refund here: Where's My Refund? which provides your current status and a specific, personalized date for your tax refund once it is available. You may also download the IRS2Go app to check your Federal refund status.

Here is the general timeline of e-filed returns:

Transmission > Acceptance > Processing > Approval > Refund.

Why do some refunds take longer than others?
