@james219912 When the blue line/ bar is complete, it means that the IRS has accepted your return and that you should have an estimated refund date soon (if you are expecting a tax refund).TurboTax just estimates your refund date based on the IRS 21 timeframe. For the most up to date information regarding your return you would want to check your status on the IRS Where’s My Federal Refund? site. You may also download the IRS2Go app to check your Federal refund status.
Where’s My Refund? has a tracker that displays progress through 3 stages:
(1) Return Accepted "Received," (2) Refund Approved and (3) Refund Sent.
The IRS issues most refunds in about 21 days, although some returns take more time to review.
When will I get my IRS tax refund?
