@Marhck4 what does the letter say specifically?  if it is just a letter stating the IRS needs more time, then just be patient.  The IRS is woefully backlogged.

No, no one can even access your account or your tax return.  The IRS does not provide any information to TurboTax after you file your tax return.   The IRS will not tell TT anything about the reason for the delay in processing your return.   There have been a lot of delays for 2021 tax returns.   The IRS is severely backlogged.   Anything on your return that is requiring a human at the IRS to review it or look at it will take much longer than normal.   If the IRS has not requested additional information from you then all you can do is wait patiently for them to finish processing your tax return.   No one at TurboTax can speed them up.

 

If they sent a letter asking for any sort of additional information from you then you need to provide that information to the IRS as soon as possible, following any instructions in the letter they sent to you.

@Marhck4 - you'll just have to be patient.  At least you know the iRS has your return.  There is really nothing you can do but wait.  Here is what the IRS website states: 

 

How long you may have to wait: The IRS understands the importance of timely processing of tax returns and refund issuance. We have processed all error free returns received prior to January 2022 and continue to work the returns that need to be manually reviewed due to errors. We are continuing to reroute tax returns and taxpayer correspondence from locations that are behind to locations where more staff is available, and we are taking other actions to minimize any delays. Tax returns are opened and processed in the order received. As the return is processed, whether it was filed electronically or on paper, it may be delayed because it has a mistake including errors concerning the Recovery Rebate Credit and the Child Tax Credit, is missing information, or there is suspected identity theft or fraud. If we can fix it without contacting you, we will. If we need more information or need you to verify that it was you who sent the tax return, we will write you a letter. The resolution of these issues could take 90 to 120 days depending on how quickly and accurately you respond, and the ability of IRS staff trained and working under social distancing requirements to complete the processing of your return.

What you should do: In most instances, no further action is needed but you may check Where’s My Refund? or you can view your account. If you filed electronically and received an acknowledgement, you do not need to take any further action other than promptly responding to any requests for information. If you filed on paper, check Where’s My Refund? If it tells you we have received your return or are processing or reviewing it, we are processing your return, but it may be under review. If you filed before January 2022 and Where’s My Refund? does not have any information, your return has been opened but work on it has not begun. We’re working hard to get through the carryover inventory. Please don’t file a second tax return or contact the IRS about the status of your return.
