do you mean you have not received your tax refund?
have yoy checked this website for status?
what does it say?
Why are you asking about audit defense---which is an add-on feature that you can choose and pay extra for? Audit defense does not speed up your refund.
TurboTax gives you an estimated date for receiving your refund based on a 21 day average from your date of acceptance, but it can take longer. “21 days” is not a promise from TurboTax or the IRS.
First, check your e-file status to see if your return was accepted:

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 2022 Form 1040) of your federal refund to track your Federal 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.

OR——if you filed by mail, expect a long wait. It is taking the very backlogged IRS six to nine months to process mailed returns. Until a human opens your envelope and enters the data into the system, nothing will even show up on the refund site, so you will have to be very patient.
Did anyone actually answer the question? Does Turbo Tax Deluxe come with Audit Defense or not?
@mkolda Audit Defense is an add-on feature for which you pay an extra fee. It is not included with the fee for using online Deluxe.

If your TurboTax fees are higher than expected, you can reduce them by removing add-ons (BEFORE you e-file) :
"Did anyone actually answer the question?" The question was never about whether Deluxe included audit defense. The original poster in this thread posted because they were still waiting for their refund; they only mentioned audit defense because they incorrectly expected that audit defense could somehow speed up their refund, which it cannot do.
