After you file

Once you've confirmed your return has been accepted, you can begin to track your refund. The IRS issues most refunds in less than 21 days, although some require additional time. Please see below for more information on tracking your refund: https://ttlc.intuit.com/replies/5340655

There are a few ways you can track your tax return.

·         If you filed your tax return through TurboTax, you can view the status of your tax return by going to this site: https://turbotax.intuit.com/tax-tools/wheres-my-refund/

·         You may also track the status of your return by visiting: https://www.irs.gov/refunds

·         There is also an app: https://www.irs.gov/newsroom/irs2goapp

Here is the general timeline of e-filed returns:

Transmission > Acceptance > Processing > Approval > Refund.

If it's been longer than 21 days since you filed your return, consider contacting the IRS directly to inquire about the status of your tax return.  You will find the contact number listed in the TurboTax FAQ below:  https://ttlc.intuit.com/replies/3302084

If it’s been

·         21 days or more since you e-filed

·         6 weeks or more since you mailed your return

·         Or if the IRS’s Where's My Refund page tells you to contact them

Then the IRS asks that you call them at these numbers

·         For individuals: 800-829-1040

·         For businesses: 800-829-4933

·         For those with hearing impairments: TTY/TDD 800-829-4059
