No one at TurboTax knows where your 2017 refund is. After your return is filed, TurboTax does not get any information from the IRS or your state. When did you file the 2017 return? Did you e-file it or mail it?
If you e-filed it, what does it say in your TT account--"accepted", "rejected", or "ready to mail?"
If you mailed it, did you use a mailing service like UPS or certified mail so you would know it was received by the IRS?
To call the IRS:IRS: 800-829-1040 hours 7 AM - 7 PM local time Mon-Fri
