TurboTax receives no information from the IRS after you file your tax return.   No one at TT knows there is a delay for your refund or why there is a delay.  TT cannot do anything to speed up the IRS for you.   Only the IRS is in control.

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 35a of your 2025 Form 1040) of your federal refund to track your Federal refund:

Call the IRS: 1-800-829-1040 hours 7 AM - 7 PM local time Monday-Friday

@crystalann54 

go to Google, and type in..... IRS 506 Hold

I Get the following..but there are couple other things that you might be referring to

"An IRS 506 hold generally refers to a refund hold (RH) scenario where tax refunds are paused because the taxpayer has at least one unfiled return within the five years prior to the current year. This inventory, often flagged with a TC 971, AC 130, indicates the IRS is holding funds until compliance is met"
