Did you e-file your state tax return and was it accepted? Only the IRS and your State control when and if a Federal or State tax refund is Approved and Issued.   You complete your tax return by finishing all 3 Steps in the File section. In Step 3, to e-file your tax return, you must click on the large button labeled "Transmit my returns now".   After completing the File section and e-filing your tax return you will receive two emails from TurboTax. The first email when your tax return was transmitted and the second email when the tax return has either been accepted or rejected.   Note - Once a tax return has been Accepted by the IRS or a State, TurboTax receives no further information concerning the tax return or the status of any tax refund.  Only the taxpayer listed on the tax return can obtain the status of a tax refund or a tax return.   To check the status of an e-filed return, open up your desktop product or log into your TurboTax Online Account. You can find your status within the TurboTax product. If accepted by the state use this TurboTax support FAQ to check the state tax refund status - https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/tax-refund/track-state-refund/L3jgO8PGs_...

Once a tax return has been Accepted by the IRS or a State, TurboTax receives no further information concerning the tax return or the status of any tax refund.   If accepted by the IRS use the federal tax refund website to check the refund status - https://www.irs.gov/refunds   After the tax return has been Accepted by the IRS (meaning only that they received the return) it will be in the Processing mode until the tax refund has been Approved and then an Issue Date will be available on the IRS website.   Call the IRS: 1-800-829-1040 hours 7 AM - 7 PM local time Monday-Friday

Code B indicates a distribution from a designated Roth account in an employer plan like a 401(k).  When the Form 1099-R is entered into TurboTax, TurboTax will include on Form 1040 line 5a the amount from box 1 and, if not rolled over to another Roth account, will include on line 5b the taxable amount from box 2a.  If box 7 includes code 1 in addition to the code 8, TurboTax will include the 10% early-distribution penalty ($1 penalty on the $8.20 taxable amount that results if not rolled over) on Form 5329 Part I.

I too am very disappointed with this policy.  I need to copy my old Canadian TurboTax files over from my Windows 10 computer to a new computer with Windows 11.  I was able to get all the old programs downloaded from TurboTax.  I could activate all of the older year's versions except for 2021, 2022 and 2023.   When I tried to activate the program for these three years I received the message "All available activations for that code have been used Error code 603".  Help stated that I needed to buy a new activation code since I had used three installs.  Very disappointed that Turbo Tax will not let you have access to historical data without buying another subscription.  Yes. I have PDF files but ...They should provide an activation code to help these users who are only updating their computers.  It is not like you will be using the program for any commercial gain.  It is only to have access to the historical data.  Agreed the software may not be supported by Turbo Tax but the earlier program still work.  Why do I need the program?  Likely will never use it but just because.  Somewhere I saw someone suggest that I could remove one of the old programs from one of the old computers.  Would this free up a subscription so I could activate the older programs on the new Windows 11 computer?   I have always been very happy with TurboTax in the past.  But now - Intuit, consider me another unhappy customer.
