This can happen while the return is being processed. It will come back when the processing is complete. You would just want to continue checking the status of your return using the Where's My Refund? site. If it has been more than 21 days since your e-filed return was accepted, you can call the IRS directly to check on that status of your refund.

@Reneeh87 It means the IRS is still working on your return.  Sometimes as the return goes from one stage of processing to a next stage that bar disappears temporarily.  Keep waiting....
