See this TurboTax support FAQ for changing from mail to e-file - https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/e-file/help/how-do-i-change-from-mail-to-e-file-in-turbotax-online...

The IRS is not accepting any 2020 tax returns until February 12, 2021

If you have not paid for the online edition you are using, have not filed your tax return or registered the Free edition, then you can clear your return. Click on Tax Tools on the left side of the program screen while working on the 2020 online tax return. Click on Clear & Start Over.

Thank you for replying. This is the 1st time I'm using mailing option , I always file electronically but this year, I am currently on deployment. I was even lucky to be able to file with the horrible internet we have . the problem is I couldn't find my last year AGI to choose the electronic option that's why I chose mailing. I tried to contact IRS to get my last year AGI for 2weeks with no success.

@Luizhino7 "Ready to mail" means "ready for you to mail".

You must make a trip to the Post Office.

My return was accepted on the 10th of February when should I expect it

I finally was able to get my AGI from last year and I electronically submitted my return on the 15th . yesterday (the 21st) I saw on my Navy Federal, the payment was pending and will be available on the 24th. So less than 10 days after submission.

The Maximum time is 21 days (for electronic submission + direct deposit option) but it never takes that long.

Usually 2weeks max

The IRS states that they issue most refunds in less than 21 calendar days from the date the return was accepted by the IRS.  This is in a normal year and is a target only--not a guarantee. 

It can take anywhere from a few hours to 3 weeks for the IRS to officially accept your return and then your information should show in the Refund tool within 24 hours of acceptance. 

You can check the status of your refund by going to the IRS Refunds page. You can click on the Check My Refund Status link or download the IRS2Go app for your mobile device. Wait at least 24 hours after your return has been accepted

I submitted my return. It was accepted. Then it said Tn tax state and that I Didnt need to file one. I also sent in two forms address change and innocent spouse felief form ive heard nothing.

You don't need to prepare a Tennessee tax return because that state does not require you to file a tax return.

You can use this IRS tool to check on the status of your refund:
