I filed my taxes on the 21st of feb and they were approved Friday so I’m just curious as to what day they should be in my account?

The IRS target is 21 days from the tax return being Accepted to issue a tax refund.  It is 

NOT

 a Guarantee

 

Only the IRS and your State control when and if a Federal or State tax refund is Approved and Issued.

 

Once a tax return has been Accepted by the IRS or a State, TurboTax receives no further information concerning the tax return or the status of any tax refund.

 

If accepted by the IRS use the federal tax refund website to check the refund status - https://www.irs.gov/refunds
If accepted by the state use this TurboTax support FAQ to check the state tax refund status - https://ttlc.intuit.com/questions/1899433-how-do-i-track-my-state-refund

 

After the tax return has been Accepted by the IRS (meaning only that they received the return) it will be in the Processing mode until the tax refund has been Approved and then an Issue Date will be available on the IRS website.

if You have a turbo card then you will NOT get then anytime soon. Either customers who’s taxes have already been approved have NEVER got a card. Despite recent ordering contacting customer service etc. their online acct says they have their refund but they can’t access any of their money because they have no card. In your case you probably have a card and although IRS says hey you’re approved and your finds have been released .... they somehow are not on your turbo card. Do y see the pattern here? Some customers last tax season waited til JULY before they received a card or a deposit. I’ve already contacted an Atty and am filing a class action suit against them. We currently have over 7.000 that’s been on this “card” since Feb 23rd yet we have NO CARD!!!
