I'll assume you physically printed, signed, dated, and mailed the return. TurboTax does not mail it for you.
For a mailed return, and if you are due a Federal refund, the only update you will receive is at the IRS site when the IRS finally pulls it and opens it up for processing. That normally takes at least 4 weeks from the time it was mailed. That's when it should appear in the IRS "Where's My Refund" tool. Processing can then take from a couple weeks to several weeks, depending on the items in the return. If you are due a Federal refund, you can try now, but it may or may not show up yet.
