Why is my refund taking so long?

How to figure out why my refund is taking extremely too long and when I look on it into it website it's not saying anything when I look at the IRS website is not telling me anything all it keeps saying is that your refund is being processed

Why is my refund taking so long?

 

It takes about 21 days to receive your refund from the IRS when you e-file and choose direct deposit as your refund choice. Also you will get personalized refund information if you check back with Where's My Refund? once the IRS has processed and approved your refund.

 

Your refund is handled by the IRS or your state office therefore TurboTax won't be able to assist with the refund processing. Please see these TurboTax FAQ's on why some tax return refunds may take a while to be released and what steps you can take:
