I filed my taxes, received my state check but never received my Federal check? Why?

Federal and state refunds come from completely separate entities,  There is no rule as to which one will come first or how much time there will be between their arrivals.

 

TurboTax gives you an estimated date for receiving your refund based on a 21 day average from your date of acceptance, but it can take longer.

Once your federal return has been accepted by the IRS, only the IRS has any control. TurboTax does not receive any updates from the IRS. Your ONLY source of information about your refund now is the IRS.

You need your filing status, your Social Security number and the exact amount  (line 20 of your Form 1040) of your federal refund to track your Federal refund:

After filing my refund through Turbo Tax, when looking on the IRS website is saying my information is entered incorrectly and there is no information about my taxes at all. Is there any way for me to get confirmation that my taxes were actually filed. Do I get an email or something
