The IRS has been backlogged for 2 years. Their goal is to have the refund issued within 21 days. It’s a goal not a promise. If you filed Feb 3 that’s 4 weeks so you should hear something soon. 
TurboTax does not have access to return after they’re filed so they can’t tell you what IRS  is doing.

TT is a primarily a DIY computer program, and you are paying for the use of it.  While TT does guaranty the accuracy if its calculations; it cannot know (for example) if you made a data entry error, forgot to claim some income, or claimed some invalid deductions/credits.

 

For example, you might have said you did not receive stimulus #3, but the IRS records indicate that you did. That would cause a delay while the IRS looks into it.
