@Gary2525 This refund status message means the IRS has accepted your tax return, but the refund may not be approved yet. You will see an updated status once the government approves your refund. The process takes an average of 21 days. If your return was accepted more than 21 days ago, you can call the IRS to research the status of your refund. Refer to the following Help Article for more information: My return is accepted but still not approved. Is there a problem? Should I be worried?
