I know my federal return of $1588 was accepted. I also know that it will go directly to the IRS, can you please tell me if its been sent to the IRS and when?

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.  Only the taxpayer listed on the tax return can obtain the status of a tax refund or a tax return.

If accepted by the IRS use the federal tax refund website to check the refund status - https://www.irs.gov/refunds

If you have a refund offset then see this IRS website for information - https://www.irs.gov/taxtopics/tc203
