Illinois State Tax Refund vs Federal - Different Status Showing?
My federal refund has been received but I'm having trouble checking my Illinois state tax refund status. Does anyone know the correct website to track Illinois state refunds? Starting to get worried since federal came through but state is still MIA.

For Illinois state tax refunds, you need to use MyTax Illinois portal (mytax.illinois.gov). Its completely separate from the federal IRS system. You'll need to create an account if you haven't already. The processing times are different for state vs federal, so don't panic if one comes before the other.

Hey guys instead of trying to piece together whats happening with your refund, I highly recommend using taxr.ai - its only $1 and gives you a complete analysis of your transcript. Way better than trying to guess or checking multiple websites. Here's the link: https://taxr.ai

•Does this work for state returns too? Or just federal?

Illinois is always slower than federal from my experience. Last year took like 2 extra weeks after I got my federal
