Yes, But it is faster to go to IRS.GOV and WHERE IS MY REFUND>
Yes! You should receive notification(s) from TurboTax (email or text, depending on what you chose when preparing your taxes through the TurboTax software). As for direct deposits, it will generally take your financial institution 1-2 business days before the money is made available to you. Also, your refund could very well be prepared for release by the IRS, but you may want to go online to the IRS website and check to see if there is a "release date". In years prior, the government has published dates when refunding of monies will begin--I believe last year, or the year before, refunds were not administered until February 15 (or something like that). So--the IRS may have your money ready and waiting to be refunded, and they are just waiting on a specific calendar date for dispersal.
Hope this helps!

A few days ago it said my refund had been deposited into my account and it hadn't been.
Where do we check this because I've gotten nothing from TurboTax.
Same her . I filed Feb. 3rd and still havent received mine
@Stephcoon77 No, you would need to keep an eye on your refund.
To track your Federal refund, visit the Where’s My Federal Refund? site You may also download the IRS2Go app to check your Federal refund status.
Where’s My Refund? has a tracker that displays progress through 3 stages:
(1) Return Accepted "Received," (2) Refund Approved and (3) Refund Sent.
If you choose direct deposit, once your refund status on the IRS shows "Refund Sent" it can take 1 to 5 business days for the financial institution to deposit fund into your account.
Please see the TurboTax FAQ's below for more information:
When am i getting my refund
The IRS estimates most taxpayers will receive their refund via direct deposit within 21 days after acceptance.
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.
You can track your refund at the Santa Barbara website by clicking here.
I tracked refund on the Santa Barbara link you posted and it shows they received it yesterday 2/25 and then sent shows “amounts paid to you” date today 2/26. When should it be in my account?
The time can vary depending on the posting periods your bank uses. Some banks will post the same day, while others can take 1-5 days. You should call your bank to see if they have nay pending deposits.
That Santa barba tracking makes no sense its doubling my refund amount. Turbo tax sent an email today saying my refund is on it way and will deposited into my account after deductions are made. I go to irs the bar for sent isnt colored in yet.(irs says.today 2/26 is my day for redund to be sent) I just want to know how long does it take for them to make the deductions and actually deposit it in to my account. This is my first year using the turbo tax card and have never waited this long for a refund.
