Should I be concerned? Should I call or give it a few more days? * edit it’s been another week still nothing and I can’t get anyone on the phone at the IRS. 4 weeks now

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.

First, check your e-file status to see if your return was accepted:

If accepted, they try to process it within three weeks but it can be longer. if you have earned income credit or additional child tax credit, it will be at least the end of February before you see your refund, due to the PATH act that requires that they hold your refund longer.

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 34of your 2020 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.

I wouldn’t be concerned. I JUST got a date for direct deposit and mine was filed on Jan 18th, and accepted on feb 12th. They are just taking forever this year with all the new tax laws to implement and stimulus issues. Hope you see a change in the status soon!!
