Federal Tax Refund Processing

I submitted my 2019 federal tax return on March 8 and it was accepted the same day. I got my state tax refund within a week through direct deposit.

 

The 2019 federal tax return said it is processing and it still says it is processing. I've waited 5 weeks, and I can't contact anyone at IRS at the moment. I can't receive my stimulus check as well until after it is finished processing...

Not necessarily.

 

If you filed a tax return in 2018, your stimulus check may be issued based upon that return.

 

The payment of the stimulus funds can be tracked at the following website:

Check status of economic payment

 

Please see the following for facts related to the payments as processed by the IRS.

Thank you for your reply.

What if my 2018 tax return was retroactively filed through paper mail at the same time my 2019 tax return was e-filed?

I tried to search for my stimulus but it says my information doesn't match. I check the irs.gov app says wrong information. I paid turbotax over 200.00 for them to tell me they don't know nothing. Can I sew them?

I got approved on March 18 and I still have not received my federal tax refund. It is ridiculous.
