After you file

 

Once the IRS Where’s My Federal Refund? site shows  "Refund Sent" it can take approximately 5 business days or more for the financial institution to deposit fund into your account.

Did you see the TurboTax estimated refund date possibly, instead of the status on the IRS website tracker? The e-file statusTurbotax gives an estimated date based on the IRS's 21 day timeframe.

 

Where’s My Refund? has a tracker that displays progress through 3 stages:

(1) Return Accepted "Received," (2) Refund Approved and (3) Refund Sent.
