Still don’t have refunds

My federal and state were accepted on April 23, 2020. I have not received my refunds yet. Why?

Make sure your e-files were accepted.

Federal and state refunds come from completely separate entities, There is no rule as to which one will come first or how much time there will be between their arrivals.

TurboTax gives you an estimated date for receiving your refund based on a 21 day average from your date of acceptance, but it can take longer. Many refunds are taking longer during the pandemic.

Once your federal return has been accepted by the IRS, only the IRS has any control. TurboTax does not receive any updates from the IRS. Your ONLY source of information about your refund now is the IRS.

You need your filing status, your Social Security number and the exact amount (line 20 of your Form 1040) of your federal refund to track your Federal refund:

If you chose to have your TurboTax fees deducted from your federal refund, that will take some extra time, while the third party bank handles the refund processing.

Yes - they were accepted on April 23rd. It is now Sept. Way past the normal 21 days from acceptance. I have tracked it and all is says is that it is accepted.

Thank you for the information.
