The IRS will open and begin to accept/reject e-files on January 24.  Watch your emails.

When you e-file your federal return you will receive two emails from TurboTax.  The first one will say that your return was submitted.  The second email will tell you if your federal return was accepted or rejected.  If you e-filed a state return, there will be a third email to tell you if the state accepted or rejected your state return.

....and with the huge backlog of tax files waiting to be processed, yours could be dealt with any time that week, not necessarily the 24th.
