Tax transcripts do not help you determine when you get your tax refund. For more information, please see Is it true that ordering a transcript will tell me when my refund is coming?

While most refunds are received within 21 days from the time a return has been accepted some returns take longer than others. It's possible your return may require additional review and take longer to process. For more information, please see the below help article.

Why do some refunds take longer than others?
