After you file
We can tell you how you can check on things with the IRS once you provide some more info.
How did you file? Did you efile, or did you choose to print and mail the return to the IRS?
If you efiled, you should double-check to be sure the return was efiled successfully and accepted.
If you used Online TurboTax, you can sign into your Online Account and check the efile status at the Tax Home.
If that showed it was accepted, you can use the "Where's My Refund" tool at the IRS website below to monitor the status of your Federal refund.

NOTE: When using that tool, be sure you are using the correct SSN and filing status. For the refund amount use only the Federal refund amount, and not any total refund amount that includes a state refund.
The amount to use is on your Federal Form 1040, Line 21a.
