First, check your e-file status to see if your return was accepted: 

https://turbotax.intuit.com/tax-tools/efile-status-lookup/

 

 If accepted, they try to process it within three weeks but it can be longer.  if you have earned income credit or additional child tax credit, it will be at least the end of February before you see your refund, due to the PATH act that requires that they hold your refund longer.

 

Once your federal return has been accepted by the IRS, only the IRS has any control.  TurboTax does not receive any updates from the IRS. Your ONLY source of information about your refund now is the IRS.

You need your filing status, your Social Security number and the exact amount  (line 34of your 2020 Form 1040) of your federal refund to track your Federal refund:

If you chose to have your TurboTax fees deducted from your federal refund, that will take some extra time, while the third party bank handles the refund processing.

Same here. I filed on 1/27, accepted 2/10 for federal and 2/14 for state. I have 1 bar on the WMR site, N/A on transcript for 2020. I didn't get the EIC but we do have the ACTC on our refund. From my understanding I shouldn't have any updates until February 28th so hopefully come Monday ill be able to see my transcript or movement on my bars.

I'm the same as you and came here for information...clearly there is zero info here you get the same regurgitated post on almost any question.  Try igotmyrefund.com forums...much better

Please understand that that TT does not receive any further updates from the IRS or states once your returns have been Accepted.  This article may cast some light on what's happening:
