This is normal and TurboTax does not have information once your return is accepted.  It can take anywhere from a few days to 3 weeks to update. The IRS will have the most up to date information, but you may not find record of it or the website may say that you have put in incorrect information when tracking your federal refund. As your return moves through the system, the status of it will be updated accordingly. Continue checking the Where’s My Federal Refund?  tool for updates.
