No one but the IRS can possibly know that.  You can speak to them, but we can tell you some things to check before you phone the IRS.

 

First, you need to be sure the return was successfully filed. It depends on how you chose to file the return.

 

If you filed a paper return by mail, TurboTax does not mail it for you.  If you chose that method, you would have had to print it, sign it, date it, and mail it yourself. 

 

  If you efiled, double-check to be sure the return was efiled successfully and accepted.  If you used Online TurboTax, you can sign into your Online Account and check the efile status at the Tax Home.   What term is used there for the status:  accepted, rejected, printed, started, ready to mail, or something else?


If the Tax Home showed it was accepted, (or if you mailed a paper return), you can use the "Where's My Refund" tool at the IRS website below to monitor the status of your Federal refund.  What does it show?  Is there any message there?

Here are some tips when using that tool:

 

  • Be sure you enter the correct tax year, SSN, and filing status.
  • Be sure you are using only the Federal refund amount.   Do not include any state refund or any total refund or net refund (Fed and State) that TurboTax may have provided on a summary screen.  
  • Look at your actual Federal return to get the Federal refund amount to use in the tool, i.e., your Form 1040, Line 35a.
