TurboTax never receives taxpayer's refunds. Payment Pending means the IRS has accepted your return, approved your refund, and payment is about to be scheduled and made.
@DavidD66 How long does it take to receive payment after you see the status: payment pending? I filed my taxes before the IRS started accepting submissions and sent them on Feb 11th so I’ve been waiting more than a few weeks and it has already been accepted. At first when it was initially accepted, the blue bar under my refund amount was halfway colored in or filled up and now the entire bar or line is blue as though it is complete. Thanks so much for reading!
@Amberandrome Typically, it take about 3 weeks to receive the refund once your return has been accepted. If it has been more than 21 days since your return was accepted, please see the following help article: What if my IRS refund is taking longer than 21 days?
Mine has said payment pending since my taxes was accepted on 2/12, and I have still yesterday to receive my refund. My WMR shows me on 1 bar, my 21 days was up on Friday and I called the IRS and they said i was still in processing. To wait 10 weeks. So the payment pending does not mean it was been approved. Plus my tax transcripts still show N/A and havent updated to my new address yet either, so i know my taxes havent even been touched.
Mine says payment completed and I haven’t get my refund please let me know if your situation changes I will to
Mine just changed to payment completed. How long will I wait
Mine changed to payment complete yesterday i hope i get them very soon
If the full bar on turbotax website means my return has been accepted, approved and a date has been set how long will it take after all that. The bar on turbotax website went from halfway to full last Friday the 5th. And here it is the 10th and still waiting. Don't tell me to check the IRS site. It is not updating and thus useless.
How long did your account say payment pending
How long after it says payment completed will I have to wait
There are a lot of delays for federal refunds this year. The IRS is working overtime to get stimulus payments sent out to you and process your tax returns. Per the IRS website IRS Operations During COVID-19: Mission-critical functions continue: Please visit here and see all services that have slowed down or been delayed due to Covid-19.
Once your tax return has been submitted, the most up to date information will come from the IRS. The IRS releases most refunds within 21 calendar days after the e-filed return has been accepted (received), not 21 days from the e-filing date.
To check on regular tax refund status via automated phone, call 800-829-1954. (This line has no information on Economic Impact Payments.)The only other way to know when your refund will be released is to use the IRS Where's My Refund tool. Until the IRS starts processing it on their own, you may not find record of it or the website may say that you have put in incorrect information when tracking your federal refund. As your return moves through the system, the status of it will be updated accordingly. Please see here for more information on checking the status of an e-filed return.
If accepted by the IRS use the federal tax refund website to check the refund status as it moves through the process here.
See the video in this link for a really good explanation of the process:

Payment Pending for Order Status sounds like you ordered something and your payment is pending. Maybe to pay for your TurboTax?

Did you receive ur refund yet? Mine just changed to completed today
Unfortunately it does not mean anything I’ve been like this for 2 weeks
If you are concerned about the status of your taxes and you are past the 21 day mark you should call the IRS to see if they can provide you with any additional information.
Please see the video below for more information:
Yes i updated today to ddd of the 24th thank you
How long after that changed did you receive your refund? Thank you for your time.
If your return has taken more than 21 days you can reach out to the IRS. Help with doing so has been provided by clicking here.
Did you receive your refund after it said Payment Status: Order Completed on your TurboTax? If so, may I ask how long it took? Thank you for your time and congrats! I know we're all needing this.
TT does not receive your tax refund. It goes directly from the IRS to a third party bank to have the TT fees deducted before the balance is forwarded to you. This can add a day or so.
However, when you signed up for Pay with Refund, you agreed to let TT takes its fees if your refund was delayed beyond a certain point, so that may be what happened. But TT notifies you first.
Check the IRS website to see if your refund has actually been issued.
TT has their 3rd party that does it's thing, then to Wells Fargo which is the 3rd party for PayPal so I know it's going to add a couple of days to it. I'm just wondering if Payment Completed means anything. I'm assuming I should be receiving a deposit at least this week because how else could TT get their funds if the IRS is still processing it.
Unfortunately, the IRS site doesn't update and if it does it's well after the refund is already in.
