Hi! I filed for my taxes almost a month ago, I should've got it already, but I haven't. I think that's because I sent the wrong routing number. Can I fix that? Thank you

I got accepted on the 21st January and it should have arrived in my bank account on the 12th February.

Sorry--you cannot fix a routing number now.   If you entered the wrong one it will be rejected by the bank and go back to the IRS.  Then the IRS will issue a check and mail it to the address on your tax return.   Make sure the address on your Form 1040 is correct.

 

"I should've got it already.."    maybe, maybe not---what does the IRS site say?

 

 

First, check your e-file status to see if your return was accepted:

Once your federal return has been accepted by the IRS, only the IRS has any control.  TurboTax does not receive any updates from the IRS. Your ONLY source of information about your refund now is the IRS.

 

You need your filing status, your Social Security number and the exact amount  (line 35a of your 2021 Form 1040) of your federal refund to track your Federal refund:

If you chose to have your TurboTax fees deducted from your federal refund, that will take some extra time, while the third party bank handles the refund processing.

Thanks for your response! The IRS says it is still being processed. My concern is that, if they send me a check in the mail, I don't know how long it will take to arrive, because I live outside of the US.

If you are outside the U.S. you will receive a check since the IRS will not make a direct deposit to a foreign bank.   As far as how long the mail takes---that is going to vary by where it is being sent.
