E-filed my 2024 Federal and State (2) returns 3/21/2025.  IRS website today shows "return not processed" Re-opened 2024 TT Deluxe and checked E-file Status which indicates all returns were accepted.  Had an overpayment of $191 and chose applied to 2025 estimated tax.  

 

Has anyone else run into this issue?  I assume I just have to call the IRS as my next step?  Suggestions or comments? 

 

Thanks!

    Once your federal return has been accepted by the IRS, only the IRS has any control.  TurboTax does not receive any updates from the IRS. Your ONLY source of information about your refund now is the IRS.

     

     

    You need your filing status, your Social Security number and the exact amount  (line 35a of your 2024 Form 1040) of your federal refund to track your Federal refund:

    To track your state refund:

    If you chose to have your TurboTax fees deducted from your federal refund, that will take some extra time, while the third party bank handles the refund processing
