Filed a few days a go and opted in for the 5 day early refund. I just got an email from TurboTax saying "Congrats, you did it! Your refund is on its way!"
My Whes my refund still just shows accepted. Not approved. My transcripts aren't showing anything.
What I'm thinking is turbo tax got their money from my refund, trigging the email. Maybe it's just a matketing email? That's why I'm here , I don't know.
Has anyone got their refund soon after getting this email from TT?

Remember that the “”5 day early” date is based on the date given to you on the IRS refund site—-not the date the TT site shows in your account. If your refund does not come in five days ahead of the IRS date, they are supposed to cancel the $25 fee.
You need your filing status, your Social Security number and the exact amount (line 35a of your 2024 Form 1040) of your federal refund to track your Federal refund:
It is likely a marketing email because it is so early.
If you have filed your tax return through TurboTax you will receive emails regarding the status of your return.
You will initially receive an email stating that your return has been submitted.
You will receive a second email that will let you know that your Federal Return was accepted or rejected.
You will receive a third email, if you e-filed your state return as well, letting you know if your state return was accepted or rejected.
If you are using TurboTax Online you can see the status of your return by clicking on "Tax Home" in the left side of your screen.
If you used TurboTax Desktop, you will select the "File" tab in the (gray) bar across your screen and then select "Check E-File Status"
You can also use TurboTax's Where's My Refund tracking tool to help you find the status of your refund.
After you are informed your federal return has been accepted, you can start tracking your refund at the IRS Where's My Refund? site.
