No, that needs to be done on Where’s My Refund? it has the most up to date information available about your refund. The tool is updated daily (usually overnight) so you will just usually need to check once a day. The site is currently experiencing high volume so you may have to check it later.

 

TurboTax does not receive updates from the IRS once they have accepted your return but we can provide information about estimated refund processing times. According to the IRS website What to expect for Refunds This Year more than 9 out of 10 refunds are issued in less than 21 days after the IRS accepts the tax return when you e-file and choose direct deposit as your refund choice. 

For more on the timing of your refund please see this TurboTax FAQ.

If you are anticipating a state tax return refund those processing times vary from state to state. To check on a state refund please visit your state Department of Revenue website.

First, check to see if your return was filed by checking your e-file status. If no status is showing then the return was not completed and submitted. 

If you don't see a status, go through the TurboTax File section again. Be sure to go all the way to the end and select Transmit my returns now.

When you e-file your federal return you will receive two emails from TurboTax. The first one will say that your return was submitted.  The second email will tell you if your federal return was accepted or rejected.  If you e-filed a state return, there will be a third email to tell you if the state accepted or rejected your state return. 

If you find your return was not completed and e-filed, you can follow the complete instructions in the link below:

How do I change from mail to e-file in TurboTax Online?

 

If your information is being entered correctly on the IRS Where’s My Federal Refund? site, then it is due to the stimulus is taking precedence over all else at this time. So the transcript may not be available for use right now on the IRS sites  Many customers have reported the same when they were previously showing a status.The website is currently experiencing high volume and may give you the message that they do not have information for your refund. Continue to check back later.
