My return isn’t showing on irs

After acceptance, but before processing the status may not be available. If you contact the government or try look up your refund status while your return is still pending, don't be surprised if they tell you "no record found." This is normal; until the government starts reviewing and processing your return, they won't have any record of it. 

Once your federal and state return have been accepted, TurboTax does not receive any updates from the IRS or State. Please keep an eye on Where’s My Refund? site, for the most up to date information. The website updates every 24 hours. Once available, it will give you a personalized date once they approve your refund. 

To check the status of your state refund, please click this link How do I track my state refund?

Here is the general timeline of e-filed returns:

Transmission > Acceptance > Processing > Approval > Refund.
