I filed on Jan 16,2022 and they were accepted on Jan 21,2022. But when I go to check status says can't be found or my information is wrong?

Sometimes people get confused by the “summary” given by TurboTax and use the wrong amount for the federal refund. Make sure you are only using the federal refund amount, and not an amount that combined your federal and state refunds.

Your federal refund amount is on line 35a of your Form 1040

I did use just the federal amount. I had checked a day or two after it was accepted and was there now nothing,

i did my taxes

and printed what needs to be filed with the IRS.

Because my husband and i file in different states, i redid just his taxes and thought i was doing a new return. instead i lost our joint IRS return. can i get back to it ?

Have you already completed the filing and transmitted the return for your joint taxes? If so, and if you are using the Online version, please see the Help Article here which will walk you through how to view/print a current year return.
