Tax return by mail

Sorry, They are not processing mailed returns right now.  The mail is stacking up in trailers at the IRS.

 

See this IRS page for the latest information

Tax return by mail

TurboTax gets no information about the status of your refund.
In normal times, the IRS says that most filers get their refunds within 21 days from the time their tax return is accepted. It takes a few weeks longer in normal times for a mailed return. 
Many returns are taking longer now since the IRS did not process returns for a while and there is now a big backlog of unprocessed returns.
The IRS is currently not processing any mailed returns and is not taking any phone calls.

Once the IRS does start processing mailed returns and starts processing yours, you can track the status of the refund using this web site:
