If you log in and the option to continue is not presented then log in and scroll down and click on ADD A STATE to open the account so you can continue the entries ...

Ok so you efiled the fed and hopefully you mailed in the state already... if not use the ADD A STATE trick to open the account and switch to efile state in the FILE tab.

Now for the federal return ...

If accepted by the IRS use the federal tax refund website to check the refund status - https://www.irs.gov/refunds

When using the IRS WMR tool, be sure you enter the correct SSN and filing status.

Use only the Federal refund amount. Do not use any combined total refund figure that TurboTax may have shown you that includes the state refund, if applicable.

Look at your actual 2019 return to get the Federal refund amount. Be sure you are using what is displayed on your Federal Form 1040, Line 21a for the Federal refund amount.

Due to the pandemic and the stimulus payments being handled by the IRS, the IRS has delayed the processing of many tax returns.

It depends.

Was it possible that someone could have claimed you as a dependent on their tax return? If so, they may have filed using your information.

Please see the following information from the IRS if you believe someone filed a tax return using your social security number.

Reporting suspected tax fraud

You will not be able to e-file your return if you are getting a message indicating your information has already been reported on a return filed. You will need to mail your tax return in.
