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!
