Where did you get the 16th date? The only place you can get a firm date is the IRS tracking web site.
That is purely an estimate provided by TurboTax based on historical refund payment times. It is nothing more than a broad estimate.
I understand that. My question is, when I track my refund, it states "still processing." I was curious as to what that means. It went from accepted back to processing. Does this mean it is being reviewed manually?
It's not possible to know exactly what is happening with your return. You would have to contact the IRS to find out.
