It the return has been accepted by the IRS, then the processing of your return is out of our hands and now the IRS's responsibility.  

 

The IRS states that they issue most refunds in less than 21 calendar days from the date the return was accepted by the IRS.  This is in a normal year and is a target only--not a guarantee.   The IRS has had extra work lately distributing the first and second stimulus checks in addition to processing returns. 

 

If you claimed the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) or the Additional Child Tax Credit (ACTC), you can expect to get your refund by the first week of March if:

  • You file your return online
  • You choose to get your refund by direct deposit
  • We found no issues with your return

Additionally, your financial institution may need time to accept your direct deposit or issue a debit card. Many institutions don’t process payments on weekends or holidays. So, if you file early, be aware of  federal and local holidays that may affect how soon you get your refund.

You all had problems before with people's stimulus checks are you having problems again with tax season if so let me know so I will not ever ever use you guys again.

The IRS is backlogged, in part due to the fact that many folks who normally don't file tax returns are doing so now because of the stimulus. This affects everyone, not just TT users.
