Why hasn’t my tax return came to me yet? It’s been 5 months & I’m in very much need of MY money.

TurboTax has no knowledge or control over your refund but it is widely known that the IRS is way behind in processing payments.

was your return e-filed and accepted or did you mail it? have you used the IRS refund website to check on its status? did you move since filing or if direct deposit was requested, did you close the a/c?

while the IRS is far behind in refunds, 5 months seems to be excessive.  unfortunately, trying to get through on the phone to the IRS at the present time is extremely difficult.
