Go to our e-file status lookup tool to get your current status.

If your federal return is accepted by the IRS, use the federal tax refund website to check the refund status - https://www.irs.gov/refunds

If your state return is accepted, use this TurboTax support FAQ to check the state tax refund status - https://ttlc.intuit.com/questions/1899433-how-do-i-track-my-state-refund

Some tax returns take longer to process than others for many reasons, including when a return:

  • Includes errors
  • Is incomplete
  • Is affected by identity theft or fraud
  • Includes a claim filed for an Earned Income Tax Credit or an Additional Child Tax Credit. See Q&A below.
  • Includes a Form 8379, Injured Spouse Allocation, which could take up to 14 weeks to process
  • Needs further review in general

Also, the IRS cannot issue EITC and ACTC refunds before mid-February: https://www.irs.gov/refunds/tax-season-refund-frequently-asked-questions
