Why is Wheres my refund tool tracker have such a hard time?is anyone else having issues

How long ago was your e-file accepted?  

 

You may need to be more patient with a system that is overwhelmed, and give some more time for the IRS to begin processing the millions of returns they have just begun to accept.

Sometimes people get confused by the “summary” given by TurboTax and use the wrong amount for the federal refund.  Make sure you are only using the federal refund amount, and not an amount that combined your federal and state refunds.  

 

Your federal refund amount is on line 35a of your Form 1040
