Until the IRS starts processing your tax return there may not be a record of it or the IRS website may say that you entered incorrect information. When tracking your federal refund you need to wait at least 24 hours after first transmitting your tax return. As your return moves through the system the status will be updated accordingly. Continue checking the Where’s My Federal Refund? tool for updates. These updates are made daily, usually overnight. Also, you will need to know the exact amount of your tax return refund, your tax return filing status, and your Social Security number when you visit the IRS website to track your refund.

Don't worry. This could mean the IRS's website hasn't updated since you filed your return. The Where's my Refund site can update any day of the week. However, mass updates on daily accounts are usually Wednesday; and mass updates on weekly accounts are usually Saturday. You may also get a message saying "We have no record of your return", please see this FAQ for more information regarding the Where's my refund message.
