Do you mean a state tax refund?

 

Of course, you first need to be sure the state return was successfully filed.  Here's how:

 

If you efiled, be sure your efiled state return was accepted.  If you used Online TurboTax, you can check by looking in your Online account at the Tax Home. 

 

Or did you choose to file by mail instead?  TurboTax does not mail it for you.  If you chose that method, you have to print, sign, date, and mail it.

 

The FAQ below tells how to check on a state refund and has a link for your state.

 

TIP:   While you're at your state's tax website, also look for a statement or FAQ that may say about how long it takes to get a refund in your state and how to long to wait before phoning the state tax agency.  Many states have such information on their websites.

What is your question about "state taxes?"   Are you awaiting a state tax refund that has taken a long time?    If so, did you read the detailed answer right above your comment?   If so, then do you have an additional question that wasn't addressed?

 

Some states are fairly quick with refunds, while other states can take a long time processing returns--even several weeks--as they crack down on detecting fraudulent returns or cope with staff shortages due to Covid, etc.   You may be able to get an idea about how long it takes in your state from a statement or FAQ at your state's tax agency website .   See my detailed answer above on how to check on a state tax refund.
