Where is my refund

My refund was accepted on February 19. It's is March 27th. It has been more than 4 weeks. Why hasn't it been deposited yet? Why the delay? How can I track it my refund? I still have yet to receive information on how to track my refund. It should have been in my account already

Where is my refund

If your return is accepted, you can check the status of your Federal refund on the IRS website, Where's My Refund at irs.gov

If you have a state refund, you can track the status on your states website

Where is my refund

Status is still processing on irs.gov, I don't understand why it is accepted with Turbo Tax but still processing on the IRS site. Just ridiculous

Where is my refund

If it has been more than 21 days since your return was accepted, then you should call the IRS directly to check on your refund status.

Where is my refund

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.

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 20a of your Form 1040) of your federal refund to track your Federal refund:

On the IRS site you are also offered the use of an app called IRS2Go

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.

Where is my refund

For some reason, this year, it's taking longer for everyone that filed mid February. All of my coworkers and friends, including myself, have been stuck on "still processing" since some time in March. Seems like more than half of America is under 45 or 60 day review.

Where is my refund

I filed my taxes on 1/26/19. It was accepted immediately by the IRS, then one week later it said there is a delay with my refund. I called the IRS with the code provided and I was told they have until 4/15/19 to complete a review of my taxes. They didn't need anything from me. On 3/13/19 I received a letter stating they will need an additional 60 days to complete the review, again they don't need anything from me. So I am looking at the end of May or first week of June before I receive my refund with no explanation for the delay. All of my information has been the same for the past 5 years.
