My refund date no longer shows a refund date, why?

I filed my taxes late January & my it was accepted on the 10th of February. The estimated return date was scheduled for the 3rd of March(today) but I haven't received anything. I usually receive an email a day prior to receiving the refund but I haven't gotten anything yet. Why the delay on taxes this year?

This is normal. It can take anywhere from a few days to 3 weeks to update. The IRS began processing returns on 2/12, you may not find a record of it or the website may say that you have put in incorrect information when tracking your federal refund. As your return moves through the system, the status of it will be updated. Continue checking the Where’s My Federal Refund tool for updates. Updates are made daily, usually overnight.
