Order status: payment completed. Does that mean the I should receive my refund soon since Turbo tax has collected their payment?

So it says completed today but was pending yestetday should i get my refund soon i filed on 1/22was accepted the 24 and it was pending till today now says completed

Only the IRS can confirm when you will receive your refund and that timeframe can vary for a number of reasons. If you saw a positive update today then the WMR tool should update to let you know your expected refund date - just keep checking the status @Hkbxmama.

The WMR tool is not reliable

It can take anywhere from a few days to 3 weeks to update and show the status. The 21 days is just an estimated time frame. The IRS began processing returns on 2/12, you may not find a record of it or the website may say that you have put in incorrect information when tracking your federal refund. As your return moves through the system, the status of it will be updated.

Since Turbo Tax will not have the status of your refund, continue checking the Where’s My Federal Refund tool for updates. Updates are made daily, usually overnight.

It still has no updated for me im really confused but my bank has my amount and the account number but i still dont have my refund yet

The IRS issues most refunds from e-filed returns in about 21 days, although some returns take more time to review. The IRS issues refunds, not TurboTax. This means that we can't say for sure why you haven’t received your refund if it's been longer than 21 days since you e-filed. You'll have to speak directly to IRS to find out more about the delay. For more information, please see the FAQ link provided below:

When will I get my IRS tax refund?

Will it change to compete once turbotax gets there money

Refunds usually take about 21 days after the IRS has accepted your e-filed return. Although, sometimes it can take longer. The IRS is taking more than 21 days (and up to 90 to 120 days) to issue refunds for tax returns with the Recovery Rebate Credit, Earned Income Tax Credit and Additional Child Tax Credit. Please see What if my IRS refund is taking longer than 21 days? for more information.

If the IRS has accepted your e-filed return, you can check the status of your refund by going directly to https://www.irs.gov/refunds.

My Oder status say Completed and this was day ago i still haven’t got no up date on the irs web or the stgp refund if tarbotaxes has there money how come i dont.Im not understanding this at all.

@ce157 That thing about your order being completed does not mean your refund has been sent to you.   It only means that since you chose to have your TurboTax fees deducted from your federal refund, TurboTax considers itself guaranteed to be paid by you---one way or another.   Only the IRS determines when your refund will be issued.   You can track your refund on the IRS refund site.

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

https://turbotax.intuit.com/tax-tools/efile-status-lookup/

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.
