So the efile status tool I gave you at the first link above said it was accepted?
Be sure you are entering the correct refund amount at the IRS website. Be sure you are using only the Federal refund amount. Don't include any state refund amount. Print out your Federal return and verify what is showing on it for the refund amount.
Here are steps to reach a live IRS agent. They can look up your return by other methods.
IRS: 800-829-1040 hours 7 AM - 7 PM local time Mon-Fri
Listen to each menu before making the selection.
First choose your language. Press 1 for English.
- Then do not choose the first choice re: "Refund", or it will send you to an automated phone line.
- Instead, press 2 for "personal income tax".
- Then press 1 for "form, tax history, or payment".
- Then press 3 "for all other questions."
- Then press 2 "for all other questions." It should then transfer you to an agent, but there is likely to be a long wait.
I usually use a speakerphone so I can work on something else while waiting.
