Besides checking your bank account you can register to for turbo tax to notify you via text and or email when your return has been accepted and then deposited. You may also go back to turbo tax and track your return

I have always opted for direct deposit to my checking account. I am notified by Turbo Tax as to the status of my refund and then I am notified by my bank as well. I have always been pleased with the status reports and how quickly my return is deposited.
