It’s been 2 month since I filed my tax return, why is it still “processing” I need that money to feed my self

Waiting is frustrating—refunds are taking longer in many cases.  These are not normal times.  It is not possible for TurboTax to speed up the IRS for you.   They are short staffed; and they are processing millions of tax returns at the same time that they have been burdened with the task of processing millions of stimulus checks. 

IRS phone lines supported by customer service representatives for both taxpayers and tax professionals are not staffed at this time. To check on regular tax refund status via automated phone, call 800-829-1954. (This line has no information on Economic Impact Payments.)

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.  Many refunds are taking longer during the pandemic. 

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 20 of your 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 would double check to see that all your income is reported. Often people forget that unemployment compensation is taxable. Sometimes there are delays in processing because the numbers you put on your return don't agree with the information submitted by your employer. OR you put more withholding than what was on your W-2.  Like for example if you put you had $790 in withholding and it was $79. 

One thing that happens is if you did your return using your last check stub it might not agree with your W-2. 

Just double check you put all the information in right. If you didn't then you may need to refile a replacement return with the right numbers.
