How do I track my federal return?

Hello! @twincrazed  you can log onto the www.irs.gov website and click the where's my refund link. There you will implement your refund amount, your social security number and your filing status. Best of luck!

How do I track my federal return?

As lalalala24681012 said above, you can track the status of your return on the IRS Where's My Refund? site. That is where you will find the most up-to-date information regarding the status of your tax return and a specific date of when to expect your refund.
Per the IRS, most refunds are received within 21 days from the time a return has been accepted and a refund option is selected. For additional information, please see the TurboTax FAQ When will I get my IRS refund?

If you claimed the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) or the Additional Child Tax Credit (ACTC) there will be a delay in processing your tax return as the IRS just started processing returns with those credits this week.
Please see the TurboTax FAQ: Some 2019 federal refunds are delayed due to the PATH Act for more information.
