TurboTax cannot get any information from the IRS after you file your tax return. Privacy laws prohibit that. No one at TT knows that you had to verify your identity or knows what the IRS is doing now. Only the IRS can tell you.
Sometimes the IRS chooses returns randomly to request verification of identity and sometimes there is something on the return that triggers the request. No matter why the IRS has required you to verify your identity, you need to follow their instructions in order to receive your refund. If you do not verify your identity you will not get your refund.

Watch the IRS refund site for information. It could take a number of weeks after verifying your identity to receive your refund.
You need your filing status, your Social Security number and the exact amount (line 35a of your 2024 Form 1040) of your federal refund to track your Federal refund:
