Thanks for the answer, that was helpful. I just wanted to add a detail; I filed through turbotax and chose direct deposit, however, not directly through IRS, but through the bank that turbotax uses as an intermediate for direct deposits. Would this make any difference? thanks.
If you trace your refund with the IRS and they let you know that they sent it to the bank that handles the refund processing service, you can then contact that bank to see what has happened to your refund.
