Question

If my refund is showing "status not available" and it's been over 21 days since i filed my taxes, does that mean something is wrong?

Sometimes people get confused by the “summary” given by TurboTax and use the wrong amount for the federal refund.  Make sure you are only using the federal refund amount, and not an amount that combined your federal and state refunds.  

 

Your federal refund amount is on line 35a of your Form 1040
