I efiled 1/31/2020. I got accepted the same day. It’s now March 15 2020. Why haven’t I received my refund?

TurboTax only gives the general IRS (most returns are processed within 21 days) date. The actual date is known only by the IRS. TurboTax also does not adjust the general date for anything on the tax return. TurboTax receives no feedback from the IRS after filing.

The IRS says most refunds will be issued within 21 days - some faster, some longer.

Each tax return is evaluated on it's own merits. There is no first-in-first-out. Two similar tax return submitted at the same time can have totally different processing times based on IRS criteria for examining tax returns that the IRS does not divulge.

Some returns will be held for ID verification or other verification. The IRS will send a letter if they require more information to process your tax return.

Only the IRS will know exactly when you will receive your refund. 

You can track your return by checking the Where's My Refund website located here. 

If you elected to have your fees deducted from your refund, the IRS will send your return to Santa Barbara Bank, where they will deduct the fees and then deposit any remaining refund into your account.

Same thing happened with me. I called the IRS and had a 4464c hold of possibly 60 days on my account. They were verifying my employment. I also learned after speaking to the agent that I had forgotten about a job I had early 2019. I only had worked at the place a month and earned maybe $1000 which is why I had forgotten about it. Anyways, wages I reported to IRS vs wages reported to the IRS by employers were different. They had to work out that discrepancy. I fully expected to have to wait the full 60 days just to be told to amend my return, and wait another 4 months for the check from that return to possibly make its way to me. I filed 2-1, accepted 2-2, and received a DDD of 3-18 on Saturday morning. Hang in there. Call the IRS to get the facts, but as long as you have nothing shady going on, you’ll get your money. I know how much it sucks. Good luck
