If you have not received your refund from the IRS, you can find out where your refund is by going to Where's My Refund:

https://www.irs.gov/refunds

You can also download the mobile site IRS2Go App:

https://www.irs.gov/newsroom/irs2goapp

If it has been over 21 days since you have filed electronically, and six weeks since you mailed your return, you can contact the IRS at 800-829-1040 directly.

Did you end up receiving your refund? And how long did it take

Only the IRS and your State control when and if a Federal or State tax refund is Approved and Issued.

 

Once a tax return has been Accepted by the IRS or a State, TurboTax receives no further information concerning the tax return or the status of any tax refund.

 

If accepted by the IRS use the federal tax refund website to check the refund status - https://www.irs.gov/refunds
If accepted by the state use this TurboTax support FAQ to check the state tax refund status - https://ttlc.intuit.com/questions/1899433-how-do-i-track-my-state-refund

 

After the tax return has been Accepted by the IRS (meaning only that they received the return) it will be in the Processing mode until the tax refund has been Approved and then an Issue Date will be available on the IRS website.
See this IRS website for federal tax refund FAQ's - https://www.irs.gov/refunds/tax-season-refund-frequently-asked-questions

It can take up to 5 business days for your bank to deposit your tax refund into your account. If the status in Where’s My Refund? shows “Refund Sent”, the IRS has sent your tax refund to your bank for direct deposit. If you don't receive it in after 5 business days, then you should contact your bank.

I paid to get the refund 5 days earlier, the app said I will receive it 02/11 (it is not 5 days earlier) and I haven’t received any refund yet, the refund date in the app disappeared and you will still charge me the 5 days early refund, also paid the agent and there nothing I can do in the useless app, just talk to a useless AI I will never file my taxes with intuit again

@Snazzy72 If it has been more than 21 days since your return was accepted, please reach out to the IRS for more information about your refund. Here's how you can reach someone: https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/refund-status/help/what-if-my-irs-refund-is-taking-longer-than-21-days/00/26080
