@NickGlow Your TurboTax E-filing status is what stage of the process your return is in. This process ends once your return is accepted by the IRS. Once Accepted by the IRS, TurboTax does not receive any updates regarding your tax return.
Your IRS Refund status is when you can expect your refund. Now any updates regarding your refund would only be found on the IRS Where's My Refund? site.
If your return was accepted less than 21 days ago, hang in there. It can take anywhere from a few days to 3 weeks or more right now to go from acceptance to approval.
Here is the general timeline of e-filed returns:
Transmission > Acceptance > Processing > Approval > Refund.
