Why does tax refund status say action required

Action required means the IRS is manually reviewing your tax return.

There could be
- An identity issue.
- A calculation error.
- A mistake in reported income.
The IRS doesn't notify TurboTax about these situations.
You can check the IRS Where's My Refund website.
- There may be a code identifying the issue
You may also get an IRS letter requesting additional information.
