If it's been accepted and I'm using that same info on the where's my refund site why don't they show it??

It is to soon to check on the status of a federal tax refund.  After the IRS has Accepted (Received) the federal tax return it must then go through tax return Processing.  Once the processing starts the status of a tax refund will be available.

Thank you. That put me at ease. After this past year I seem to have gotten cynical and doubt every thing and everyone. Foolish I know. But thank you for explaining this process. Take care stay well
