Are you saying the IRS "Where's My Refund" tool at the link below shows that your return was received and is still processing?  You can check here: https://www.irs.gov/refunds   If that tool shows it has been processing for 5 weeks at the IRS, then you can phone the IRS to see if they can tell you anything about the delay.   IRS: 800-829-1040 (7AM-7 PM local time) Monday-Friday  

Are you asking how to check on a Federal tax refund?   If you efiled, be sure the efiled return was accepted by the IRS for processing. If you used Online TurboTax, you can check at the Tax Home of your account to see if the status is "accepted."   If the return was accepted, then you can check on the status of your Federal refund with the IRS "Where's My Refund" tool.   What message do you see there? https://www.irs.gov/refunds   For tracking a state tax refund: https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/tax-refund/track-state-refund/L3jgO8PGs_...

Thank you  It was key for me to do this step.. At the screen How do you want to add your docs?, click Type it in myself As I had 300+ sales transactions and I could just do the summary and reduce it by 50%.  Best

"I could empty the account before years end but roth converting it would've taken until the next year,"   Whether the conversion is done directly or indirectly, the timing of a Roth conversion is based on when the distribution from the traditional IRA occurs.  Even if not deposited until early 2026, depositing the $1030.61 into a Roth IRA within 60 days of the date of the distribution would have resulted in it being a Roth conversion reportable on the 2025 tax return.   "shouldn't I have to pay more?"   No, you shouldn't pay more.  Only the taxable portion of an early-distribution is subject to penalty.   Note that after applying $899 of basis to the $1030.61 distribution, $6,101 of basis remains to apply to the conversion of the $7,000.  The result is that the taxable amount of the Roth conversion of the $7,000 is $899.  A Roth conversion is not subject to an early-distribution penalty, so that $899 taxable portion of the Roth conversion is not subject to penalty.
