No, that doesn't answer my question. I don't owe the government

The IRS did not start processing tax returns until February 12. Most refunds are received within 21 days from the time a return has been accepted. However, some returns take longer than others. It's possible your return may require additional review and take longer to process. The IRS Where's My Refund? site is updated daily usually in the evening hours. You can also call the WMR Hotline at 800-829-1954 for updated status as well.

If after 21 days from acceptance of your return, you do not have your tax refund you will need to contact the IRS. Please see the TurboTax FAQ: What if my IRS refund is taking longer than 21 days?
