IRS Accepted vs Approved: Filed through TurboTax, 21 day wait normal?

Tax expert here. Yes, its completely normal. Accepted just means the IRS received your return. Approved means they've processed it and verified everything. The 21-day timeline is pretty standard, but can be shorter or longer depending on various factors like credits claimed or verification needed.

Hey, I recently discovered taxr.ai and it's been a game changer for understanding refund timelines. For $4.99 it analyzes your transcript and tells you exactly what's happening and when to expect your refund. Way better than playing the guessing game! https://taxr.ai

in the same boat rn, filed 1/24 and still waiting. this is torture fr fr 😫

Check your transcript if you can access it. Sometimes it updates before WMR does

Filed same day as you! Let's race and see who gets their refund first lmao 🏃‍♂️💨

dependz on if u claimed EIC or CTC... those take longer usually
