My return was accepted on January 28th and just received email about my money coming on a green dot card when i put it for direct deposit
I added some more info to this comment, so I'm sending it through again.
Funds sent from the IRS to a Green Dot card IS a direct deposit. The Turbo Visa Debit Card is administered by Green Dot. Did you apply for a Turbo Card, or do you have another brand of card administered by Green Dot? Or did you mean you did not apply for a debit card at all and chose to have it sent to your own bank checking account?
Did you receive a Turbo Visa Debit Card card 5-10 business days after filing?
Does the IRS confirm that your funds have been sent when you check with this tool? (The IRS tool will always say "bank" even when it's going to a "card", since a card uses an underlying bank account.)

NOTE: When using that tool, use only the Federal refund amount, and not any total refund amount that includes a state refund.
The amount to use is on your Federal Form 1040, Line 21a.
