After you file

Under the PATH Act, refunds for early filers claiming the Additional Child Tax Credit (ACTC) or Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) are held until at least February 15 to allow the IRS time to match information from the filer’s tax returns with information on W-2 forms from employers.  I wouldn't start to be concerned until mid or late March.  The IRS can be slow, for no reason.
