Hello @SalMass91,
Unfortunately I am unable to check the progress of your return however there are a couple things to take note of. You can check your MYGOV inbox and your ATO Online Services communication history to see if we have sent a message explaining why there is a delay. Also the best sign of your return being done is that your Notice of Assessment has been generated. The last thing you can do is check your statement of account under tax accounts to see if we have a future posted refund date.

Also to note a refund hasn't been initiated in the summary. Just says Income Tax and has the process and effective date
