For me, I was informed that the topic 152 few weeks ago. “4 days ago, it went back to says that it has been processed of the review”. It has been “over 21 days” after my file was accepted by them. Do you think that I also should call them?

If you had Earned Income Credit, then these returns were delayed until at least mid-February. The IRS has recently begun to process those returns and you can keep track of the return by clicking here

I appreciate your message. 
As a clarification, as of today, you think that I do NOT need to contact IRS, right? I have not received any letter from them.

@Taka, since it has been more than 21 days, that is your call.  If you decide to contact the IRS, expect to be on hold for a very long time..If your status at Where's my Refund shows Processing or Still Processing, that means that the IRS is working on your return and you should have a refund date soon.

 

This is the process that your return is going through:

 

Pending: https://ttlc.intuit.com/replies/4193097

 

Accepted (this is the last update that TurboTax will get from the IRS): https://ttlc.intuit.com/replies/3958820

 

Processing, or Still Processing (the IRS does not inform TurboTax of this stage.  Keep checking Where's my Refund:( https://ttlc.intuit.com/replies/4689484

 

Approved (TurboTax is also not informed of this stage):  https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/return-status/help/does-accepted-mean-my-refund-is-approved/00/265...
