Has anyone else had issues receiving their refund (I am a first time user so I am not sure of the timeline), my return has been accepted for 21+ days now. Any advice?

The IRS states that most refunds would be issued within 21 days (business days) from the time your return has been accepted & you choose direct deposit.  This time of year the IRS is very busy so it can take longer.  

For your Federal refund, you can check the IRS website Where's My Refund

https://www.irs.gov/refunds

-----------------------------

If you have a state refund, you can check your state's website

How do I track my state refund?

Also, see the following
What if my IRS refund is taking longer than 21 days?
