Why you slacking on my return. I payed $100 dollars to get it within 21 days

 

Get your taxes done using TurboTax

You paid to use tax preparation software.  The estimated time to receive your refund was within 21 days, but that processing time is up to the IRS, not TurboTax.  The IRS is backlogged due to the pandemic, and many refunds are taking longer.

TurboTax gives you an estimated date for receiving your refund based on a 21 day average from your date of acceptance, but it can take longer.  Many refunds are taking longer during the pandemic. 

 

Once your federal return has been accepted by the IRS, only the IRS has any control. TurboTax does not receive any updates from the IRS. Your ONLY source of information about your refund now is the IRS.

You need your filing status, your Social Security number and the exact amount  (line 20 of your Form 1040) of your federal refund to track your Federal refund:

If you chose to have your TurboTax fees deducted from your federal refund, that will take some extra time, while the third party bank handles the refund processing.

Get your taxes done using TurboTax

The TurboTax account  fees are for the software that was used to assist in completing a tax return.  There is no type of option to get a tax refund within a set time-frame.  

Only the IRS controls when and if a Federal tax refund is Approved and Issued.

 

To check the status of an e-filed return, open up your desktop product or log into your TurboTax Online Account. You can find your status within the TurboTax product.
If accepted by the IRS use the federal tax refund website to check the refund status - https://www.irs.gov/refunds

 

After the tax return has been Accepted by the IRS (meaning only that they received the return) it will be in the Processing mode until the tax refund has been Approved and then an Issue Date will be available on the IRS website.
