The IRS issues most refunds within 21 days of your return being accepted. Once you get your card, you will need to activate it.  

TurboTax tracks whether your federal tax return as been accepted or rejected, and gives an estimate on when you can expect to receive your tax refund.  Please see the following TurboTax FAQ for information on tracking your federal refund:

Once the IRS accepts your tax return, it usually issues refunds within 21 days. To learn more and for the most up-to-date info from the IRS, visit www.irs.gov/refunds.  For information about your state refund, contact your state government agency.

Remember: You must activate your TurboSM Prepaid Visa® Card to access the tax refund money that was deposited to it.
