How to track my refund

[NiaW]

The only two ways to track your refund would be through Turbo Tax or the IRS.

• IRS website for federal refund: www.IRS.gov/refunds
• Turbo Tax Track Your Refund: https://turbotax.intuit.com/tax-tools/efile-status-lookup/

For states, use your state's refund lookup.

You may try to contact an IRS representative at 1-800-829-1040 but they can research the status of your return only if:

• It's been more than 21 days since you received your e-file acceptance notification,
• It's been more than 6 weeks since you mailed your paper return, or
• The Where's My Refund? tool directs you to contact us.

Did you efile the Federal return?  If so, first make sure it was efiled successfully and accepted.   If you efiled both Fed and State, then it was probably accepted, otherwise the state return wouldn't have processed.

Log into your Online account.

What is showing for the return "status" for the 2018 Federal return?   Does it show accepted?

If so, what do you see at the IRS website below for the status of your Federal refund?
https://www.irs.gov/Refunds
NOTE: When using that tool, use only the Federal refund amount, and not any total refund amount that includes a state refund. The amount to use is on your Federal Form 1040, Line 20a.

If that IRS tool shows that the refund has been sent, report back for more info.

If the IRS tool says it is still "being processed",  we can tell you how to speak to a live agent at the IRS to see if they can tell you anything about the delay.  And if you can't get good info from the IRS, how to seek help from the IRS Taxpayer Advocate Service.

Only the IRS and your State control when and if a Federal or State tax refund is Approved and Issued.

Once a tax return has been Accepted by the IRS or a State, TurboTax receives no further information concerning the tax return or the status of any tax refund.

If accepted by the IRS use the federal tax refund website to check the refund status - https://www.irs.gov/refunds
If accepted by the state use this TurboTax support FAQ to check the state tax refund status - https://ttlc.intuit.com/questions/1899433-how-do-i-track-my-state-refund

After the tax return has been Accepted by the IRS (meaning only that they received the return) it will be in the Processing mode until the tax refund has been Approved and then an Issue Date will be available on the IRS website.
