1) Case [social security number removed]

2) order # TTWCD[phone number removed]

3) order # TTWC

 

Thanks

No one else has access to your account(s) or your tax returns.  Only you can access the accounts you have or your own tax returns, and only you can check on the status of your e-file or 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.  Many refunds are taking longer during the pandemic. 

 

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 20 of your 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.

Did you use the Online web version you go to online and log into?  Or the Desktop CD/Download program?

 

For the Desktop program you have to check the filing status inside the program.  Open your return and go up to menu item

File > Electronic Filing > Check Electronic Filing Status
