What does it mean when my federal taxes say ready to mail?

Refund Status

Level 11

If you filed by mail, the system will not know. Therefore, the system will send reminders for you to complete your return.

Level 12

@Andriana123 "Ready to Mail" usually means that your return is ready to printed and mailed off for processing. If your intention was to e-file your return instead, you can do so by switching to e-file. Here's how: How do I change from mail to e-file in TurboTax Online?

@ErvinGraves Have you tracked your return on the "Where's My Refund?" tool? It does take 4-6 weeks for the IRS to receive mailed in returns and for you to be able to track them.
