Delayed refund

[lvsugar76]

Hi, I submitted  my 2023 tax return electronically on 02/12/24  it shows accepted. Estimated refund  date is 03/04/24. I checked  the return  status  on IRS website it shows  return  received. However  until now it's  not approved. Why is it delayed  so long and how long it takes to approve  and send?

Once your return is filed, TurboTax has no control over the processing of your return or the release of your refund.

Why does Where's My Refund say "approved" but TurboTax still says "accepted"?

Why do some refunds take longer than others?

What if my IRS refund is taking longer than 21 days?

Here are a couple FAQs to track your refund:
When will I get my federal tax refund?
How do I track my state refund?
