The bank account info I don’t think is correct

@Slongs84

If you e-filed:

Banking information for direct deposit is wrong or closed

If you entered incorrect banking information for your refund, you can change it if your return is rejected.  If it is accepted, however, it is too late to change it.  The bank will reject the refund and send it back to the IRS.  Then the IRS will issue a paper check and mail it to the address you put on your tax return.  Expect a delay of at least a couple of weeks to receive your refund.

Here is what the IRS says about entering incorrect banking information

If your refund is sent back to the IRS—- make certain that the address you entered on your Form 1040 is correct.  And…open all mail, even if it looks like junk mail.

Also, if you chose to pay any TurboTax fees out of your Federal refund, the IRS sends your refund first to a temporary bank account at a third-party bank where the fees are subtracted.   Then that bank sends the rest to your bank account (or card) in a second direct deposit.   If you used that option, and if the IRS has released your refund, we can tell you more about how to check on it at the third-party company that administers that (SBTPG).

Tomorrow will be 21 days for my taxes. When do I get them by?

@Matthouser

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.  “21 days”  is not a promise from TurboTax or the IRS. 

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

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 35a of your 2024 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 received messages from the state of California saying I owe money for two different tax years that you guys submitted.

who do I talk to about this

Did your CA returns show a tax due?  How did you pay it?  

Your only proof of payment is your bank statement or credit card showing the payment coming out. Turbo Tax only passes your bank account number to the state for the state to take it out of your account.  And  double check your bank account and routing number with your bank. Some banks use a different routing number for deposits and payments.

Check the printout or PDF of your return; look for the state cover sheet with the Turbo Tax logo. If you owed tax, it will show the payment information and how/when you decided to pay. Read the state payment instructions carefully since most states cannot be paid from within the TT system and requires additional steps.
