After you file

You can check your refund status on "Where's My Refund?" . Typically you will receive your refund in about 21 days after you tax return is accepted by the IRS if you filed electronically and selected direct deposit. Please see more information in this TurboTax FAQhttps://ttlc.intuit.com/community/refund-status/help/when-will-i-get-my-irs-tax-refund/00/25589

Now, until the IRS starts processing your tax return there may not be a record of your refund or the IRS website may say that you have entered incorrect information when tracking your federal refund. You need to wait at least 24 hours after transmitting your tax return. As your return moves through the system the status of it will be updated accordingly. Continue checking the Where’s My Federal Refund?  tool for updates. These updates are made daily, usually overnight. Also, you will need to know the exact amount of your tax return refund, your tax return filing status, and your Social Security number for the IRS when you visit the IRS website to track your refund.
