Once TurboTax hands off your tax return to the IRS (indicator: ACCEPTED) then TurboTax can't do anything further for you.

It is between you and the IRS.

@leena0915 TurboTax gets no information from the IRS after you file your tax return.  The IRS will not give any information to TurboTax.  TT cannot intercede with the IRS for you.  Once you file, it is between you and the IRS.

 

You say it has been 20 months....so you must be talking about a 2020 return.  Call the IRS or contact a tax advocate.

 

 

To call the IRS:IRS:  800-829-1040  hours 7 AM - 7 PM local time Mon-Fri

Listen to each menu before making the selection.

First choose your language. Press 1 for English.

Then do NOT choose the first choice re: "Refund", or it will send you to an automated phone line.

Instead, press 2 for "personal income tax".

Then press 1 for "form, tax history, or payment".  

Then press 3 "for all other questions."

Then press 2 "for all other questions."  It should then transfer you to an agent.
