So as many of you know Turbotax made a mistake but finally fixed it for those of us who filed early and live in California by rejecting the return and allowing us to fix it.
Part 2 of this saga is now the Federal tax return. Upon checking on the IRS website i get "A refund date will be provided when available."
Doing some more reading into this, it appears there is another problem for those of us who filed early that is likely causing a delay as there is an error in our Federal returns. Now this is something the IRS can fix but don't expect a return like normal within 21 days of e filing. My understand is it can take up to 10 weeks or longer once the error is corrected which could take up to another 30 days.
On the bright side California already refunded the money but the Federal like most I'm sure is where the bulk of your refund is and there is nothing we can do. In some cases the IRS might send a letter asking you to fix it in other instances if it was the same error box 30 if i recall than they will fix it, but expect major delays.
