IL Tax Refund Status

Hello,

 

I was just checking to see the status of my Illinois tax refund? I sent it off in the mail about 3-4 weeks ago, but my status in TurboTax still says "Ready to file" and I haven't received my Illinois refund yet.

First, check that your return was received by the taxing authority using these instructions: Check the Electronic Postmark of your Return. Pay close attention to the separate lines for Federal and State. They are separate statuses.

 

Then, see below how to track your state refund.

 

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

 

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