Hello, I mailed my return to the IRS about 50 days ago, and I still have not received my money. It seems that the IRS received my mail 40 days ago. What is taking so long for the refund to be processed? How long it takes normaly such refund to be procesed?

    The IRS issues most refunds within 21 days if filed electronically; 4-6 weeks if filed by paper, assuming that there is no delay and nothing is holding your return. 

     

    Keep in mind that once your return is accepted for processing by the IRS and/or State TurboTax has no control over the processing of your return and/or release of your refund. If you have any inquiries regarding any delay you should contact the IRS or your state Department of revenue directly for further assistance.

     

    There is a couple of FAQs to help you 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?
