@bettyjcox4733  asked:  "Where is my state return?"

 

You said "return", but did you mean instead to ask about a state refund you are expecting?  A state tax refund is what I'll address.  If you are asking about the actual state forms, you'll need to report back.

 

Some states are fairly quick with refunds, while other states can take a long time processing returns--even several weeks--as they crack down on detecting fraudulent returns or cope with staff shortages due to Covid, etc.   You may be able to get an idea about how long it takes in your state from the FAQs or a statement at your state's tax agency website.

 

Of course, you first need to be sure the state return was successfully filed.  Here's how:

 

If you efiled, be sure your efiled state return was accepted.  If you used Online TurboTax, you can check by looking at the Tax Home in your Online account.  

 

Or did you choose to file by mail instead?  TurboTax does not mail it for you.  If you chose to file by mail, you are the one that has to print, sign, date, and mail it.

 

The FAQ below tells how to check on a state refund and has a link for your state.   After using the state refund lookup tool at the state's website, if you need additional help, you can phone the state tax agency for info.

If you are looking for a copy of your State income tax return (filing), it is in the same TT file as your Federal.  Just keep scrolling down, past some worksheets.
