my refund accepted 1/27 but still not approved. I'm getting worried. I filed electronically. I usually get approved by now.
Even though the IRS issues 9 out of 10 tax refunds within 21 days, it's possible your return may require additional review and take longer to process.
Why do some refunds take longer than others?
What if my IRS refund is taking longer than 21 days?
