Federal refund where is it. I mailed in feb

[JohnB5677]

Once your tax return is released to the IRS, TurboTax has no control over it.

• However, the IRS has published an article because delays happen so frequently.
• Why it may take longer than 21 days for some taxpayers to receive their federal refund
• The IRS states, "To check the status of a refund, taxpayers should use the 
  • Where's My Refund? tool on IRS.gov."

You will need:

• Social Security Number
• Zip Code
• Refund amount

 When you file by mail---which is what you say you did--- it can take three or four weeks for a human to even open your envelope and enter the information into the system; then it will still take several more weeks or longer for the IRS to process your return and issue your refund.   You can watch for information on the IRS refund site. 

You need your filing status, your Social Security number and the exact amount  (line 35a of your 2025 Form 1040) of your federal refund to track your Federal refund:
