Filed early April- received state refund pretty quickly, nothing from fed- status is still processing. Accountant says nothing to do but wait.

That's a long time to be pending. Did you call the IRS and ask about it?

Did you have unemployment pay.
Call at exactly 7:00 am.

Sometimes you need to get someone to give it a push to the next stage. It's also possible they sent you a letter for you to respond to but it got lost in the mail.

Spoke with my accountant, he said a lot of people got there refund in the last two weeks and usually a higher amount then expected.

Here's a data point:

Filed taxes in late February, got the refund soon after. Then I became due to an increased refund due to the American Rescue Act (making part of unemployment untaxable). That refund came through today via Direct Deposit.
