After you file

 

TurboTax does not issue any refunds.  The IRS does.  Please continue to read:

 

Generally, the IRS issues most refunds in less than 21 days, although some require additional time. 

 

You should only call if it has been:

  • 21 days or more since you e-filed
  • 6 weeks or more since you mailed your return, or when
  • "Where is my refund" tells you to contact the IRS

FAQ refund

 

 

Per IRS, if you e file your returns and choose to receive the refund through direct deposit, you should expect to receive your refund within 21 days of IRS e-file acceptance.  If you filed a paper return, allow 4 weeks before checking the status. Refund processing time is 6 to 8 weeks from the date the IRS receives your tax return.

 

However, if you have claimed Earned Income Credit EITC or Additional Child Tax Credit ACTC on your return, it will be later. The IRS expects the earliest EITC/ACTC related refunds to be available in taxpayer bank accounts or debit cards starting February 27, 2019, assuming these taxpayers select direct deposit and there are no other issues with their tax returns.
