Was your return Accepted or not?  You said it didn't accept it.

 

Did you go all the way through the File tab, through the 3 steps and hit the big orange Transmit Returns Now button?

 

If you used the Online version you can check your efile status here     

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

 

When you efile you get back 2 emails.  The first email only confirms the transmission.  The second email says if the IRS (or state) Accepted or Rejected your efile.  And check your spam folder for them.

 

When you log into your account you should also see the status and if it was Accepted or Rejected, Started, Printed, Ready to Mail, etc.  What does it say?

 

If your return was Accepted then check IRS Where's my refund

https://www.irs.gov/refunds/

 

When will you get your refund?

if it was rejected, the IRS never got it and you will never get your refund until either it's e-filed and accepted or you mail it in  (if mailed use a tracking service)
