If your return was accepted less than 21 days ago, hang in there. It can take anywhere from a few days to 3 weeks to go from acceptance to approval.
Even though the IRS issues 9 out of 10 tax refunds within 21 days, it's possible your return may require additional review and take longer to process.
For some taxpayers, PATH Act requirements and other identity-protection safeguards implemented by the IRS may account for longer wait times. (EIC or Additional Child Tax Credit)
Other things that can delay your refund include but are not limited to:
Also, if you chose direct deposit, your financial institution may need another day or two to post the refund to your account, so keep that in mind.
Here is the general timeline of e-filed returns:
Transmission > Acceptance > Processing > Approval > Refund.
Once your federal return has been accepted by the IRS, unfortunately TurboTax does not receive any updates from
the IRS.

I have not received my tax return I filed my taxes on January 31st of this year and have repeatedly been calling the irs trying to get some kind of answer and they have said nothing other than it is still processing I need some kind of help you can email me at [email address removed] and my phone number is [phone number removed] thank you and keep me informed of any progress.
Once the IRS accepts your return for processing then Turbo Tax is done with their part. There is nothing Turbo Tax can do now. The IRS doesn't update Turbo Tax on your Refund. It's only up to the IRS. You have to wait for the IRS.
