I have the same problem. I received my state refund but I have not received my federal. When it clearly states my federal should have been refunded the 17th.

We can't give you an exact date when you will receive your refund at this time. Refunds can be issued in less than 21 days, but there are cases where it can take longer to process.

TurboTax will only show the status of returns (not refunds), such as when the return is actually accepted. You would not be able to directly track the status of your refund from within your TurboTax account. TurboTax is not connected the IRS or state department(s) of revenue refund tracking tools.

Please see the TurboTax FAQ below for more information on tracking your tax refund:

The below information explains the process of what happens after you send your tax return for approval:

The bar indicator is meant to be an estimate based on the average refunds filed.

The federal and state refunds are separate entities.

It usually takes about 21 days from the date of acceptance to receive your refund.

FINALLY!

I checked WMR at 5:30AM this morning. It stated:

"Your tax refund is scheduled to be sent to your bank by February 26, 2020.

If your refund is not credited to your account by March 2, 2020, check with your bank to see if it has been received.

I filed on 1/22/20 and it was accepted on 1/23/20.
