After you file
There may be several reasons your refund is not showing up in the IRS system.
First, did you file your return? And was it accepted by the IRS? Did you get an email or text alert from TurboTax saying your return was filed and another message saying it was accepted?
Many customers think they’ve filed their return but never transmit it. Or their return is rejected and never fixed. Make sure the IRS has actually accepted your return.
Second, it may be too soon. Returns do now show up immediately in the IRS system. You don’t say when you sent your return. IRS says to start checking Where’s My Refund? 24 hours after e-filing the tax year 2022 return or 4 weeks after filing on paper.
Third, did you mail your return? If you mailed your return, the IRS may not have received it, or it got lost in the mail or the IRS has not transferred your data. The IRS mail is backed up.
