Turbotax gives you an estimated date, calculated by the 21 days from when your Return was Accepted. It does not take into account the tax returns with EIC and/or additional child tax credit. The refunds for these Returns cannot be processed by the IRS until Feb. 15th.

The IRS has said to expect your refund the week of Feb. 27. https://www.irs.gov/newsroom/avoid-the-rush-use-irsgov-for-quick-answers-to-questions

The actual date can be found at www.irs.gov/refunds

Please understand that 6-8 weeks is just an estimate. The IRS does not guarantee dates, and does not advise Turbotax of the progress.  You may want to change your withholding so that you do not have to go through this again  next year.
