Have you been tracking the status of each?

I tried looking my refund status up on the IRS official website but it can not find it. But within Turbo Tax it says that my State and Federal tax refund has been accepted.

Ok, second part, when checking the IRS site, be sure you are entering your social security number, your filing status, and the amount of your Federal return only, do not combine the Federal and State total, ..do that and check back in with me, if you still need assistance.

Ok, in such cases as this, it's highly recommended to call the Where's my refund? automated hotline: 1-800-829-1954. That way, they can verify you another way over the phone and give you the status of your refund.https://ttlc.intuit.com/replies/4495802
