Here is help for tracking your Federal Refund:
While most refunds are issued within 21 days of the return being accepted, not the date it was filed, sometimes there can be delays.

I am still waiting for my federal returns. This is what I’m getting: Your tax return is still being processed. A refund date will be provided when available. What else can I do...it’s been over 21 days I believe.
The IRS and your state operate independently of each other and therefore, the time frame in which each return is accepted and processed can vary. It is not unusual that one arrived before the other. Your state may have started processing returns sooner than the IRS. The IRS generally releases most refunds within 21 calendar days after the e-file has been accepted. To get the most up-to-date status of your federal return, please visit the IRS Where's My Refund? site. You can check the status of your return every 24 hours as they do update the site daily - usually in the overnight hours.
