TurboTax + PayPal Refund Status Check - Anyone Received Theirs Yet?
Filed through turbotax and chose the paypal option for my refund deposit. Been waiting since early February and still nothing. Anyone else waiting or got theirs already? Starting to get nervous about choosing paypal instead of direct deposit to my bank account.

Tax professional here - PayPal deposits usually process within the same timeframe as regular bank deposits once the IRS releases the funds. The delay you're experiencing is likely not related to PayPal but rather standard IRS processing times. Check your transcripts to see if there are any holds or verification needs.

•You can access them through irs.gov/transcripts but honestly its a maze to figure out whats going on in there

Just found this thing called taxr.ai - its only $1 and it actually tells you exactly whats happening with your refund and when youll get it. Way better than trying to decode the transcript yourself tbh https://taxr.ai

•Yeah its legit! Used it last week and it predicted my deposit date exactly. Better than waiting on hold with IRS for hours

Pro tip: never use 3rd party deposit services. Direct deposit to your bank is always faster and safer. learned this the hard way last year 😤
