How can I locate my refund status on the IRS website?

[LatoyaLO]

The TurboTax "Track My Refund" tracker only gives an estimated date of deposit based off of the date the IRS received your return and then gives a date 21 days out from that day.

Please keep in mind that once filed TurboTax has NO control over the IRS processing time.

You should be able to check your actual refund status at the IRS website: - https://www.irs.gov/refunds.

The IRS "Where's My Refund" tracker shows the progress of your return with the IRS. It has three steps:

1. Received(IRS has acknowledged receipt of the return and is being processed),
   
2. Approved(IRS has processed the return and a release date is provided) and
   
3. Sent(the funds have been released)
