After you file

The IRS guideline is that refunds are issued within 21 days, provided they are

  • Electronically filed 
  • With Direct deposit, 
  • And provided there are no other issues.

To check your tax refund status in TurboTax, 

  1. Sign in to your account and 
  2. Go to the "Tax Home" or "Order Details" screen 
  3. It will tell you if your return was accepted.

If you want to know the status of your tax return,  you should use the IRS  Where’s My Refund website.

 You'll need

  • Your Social Security or individual taxpayer ID number (ITIN)
  • Your filing status
  • The exact refund amount on your return
