Once accepted, the IRS takes over the status updates at the IRS Where's
My Refund? website.
Sometimes, your federal
refund can take longer than 3 weeks to process. (See the FAQ below for reasons why this
may occur). An IRS
representative will be able to research the status of your refund (if your
return was accepted more than 21
calendar days ago.) Call them at 1-800-829-1040.
