After you file

margotfisher123@ It seems like the question you posted above asked why your IL refund has not arrived yet.

 

" Why is my tax refund not here Illinois 5 weeks.."

 

 Now you say that is not what you were asking.  What is your question?   

 

TurboTax has no control over how long it will take IL to send your refund.  TT only gives you estimated dates for your refunds, but some refunds come sooner; some take much longer.   TurboTax gets no information from your state after you file your tax return, so all you can do is track it on the state's tax site and watch for information there.
