How come I did my taxes before the Tax Refund deadline got my acceptance and never got any advance or any type of alerts confirming Im legible for the advance.

My tax refund is over 4000 I should at least get 2000, but turbo tax got their money immediately after I filed smh

When did you file?   the Advance program has ended on February 15.  You can scroll way down and check the eligibility requirements

I thought it ended the 4/18 same day as deadline, I remember singing up specifically because that home page banner was still active with "tax advance up to 4000 not available after 5pm" then I did my taxes, paid by 9am and that was all. but if it ended the 15th I didn't know however the advertisement was still active until 5pm 4/18 I specifically remember coming back to check on my tax advance the that night at 5;30 and the ADVANCE promotion was gone so im sure im not crazy but the only reason I used turbo tax and paid for an expert was to qualify for that but thanks for the update.

The advance loan program ended on February 15.   If you filed your return, you can watch for information on the IRS and state refund sites now.

TurboTax gives you an estimated date for receiving your refund based on a 21 day average from your date of acceptance, but it can take longer.  “21 days”  is not a promise from TurboTax or the IRS. 

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 2022 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.
