"My refund amount" is not a question--do you want a best guess for an answer?

Look on line 20 of your Form 1040 for your federal refund amount. That is the amount you must use when you try to track your refund on the IRS site.

We do not know what state--if any--you filed a return for, and the forms are all different, so we cannot tell you the line number to look at on your state return---but it will be somewhere near the bottom of the form.

TurboTax gives you an estimated date for receiving your refund based on a 21 day average from your date of acceptance, but it can take longer. Many refunds are taking longer during the pandemic.

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 20 of your Form 1040) of your federal refund to track your Federal refund:

If you chose to have your TurboTax fees deducted from your federal refund, that will take some extra time, while the third party bank handles the refund processing.
