Once your tax return has been submitted by TurboTax and accepted by the IRS, TurboTax (nor any other tax preparation company) has any input or control over what the IRS does with your tax return.

 

TurboTax gets no information about the status of your refund.
In normal times, the IRS says that most filers get their refunds within 21 days from the time their tax return is accepted.
Many returns are taking longer now since the IRS did not process returns for a while and there is now a big backlog of unprocessed returns.
The IRS is currently not processing any mailed returns nor are they taking phone calls.

 

If you efiled your return, have you confirmed that the return was submitted by TurboTax and accepted by the IRS?

If accepted, what does the IRS tracking web site say about the status of your refund?
