Some people I know have the dates of 2/20/18-2/22/18 and I filed before or the same time as them.

If they were accepted, I would not worry. If there were errors, they would have rejected. You would have gotten a rejection email stating the reason, and a link back to TurboTax to fix it and resend.

If you are receiving an EIC/EITC, here is an explanation from the IRS of the timeline. I am posting the link below

https://www.irs.gov/individuals/refund-timing

he IRS states the you should receive your refund in 21 days from the date the return is accepted by the IRS.

The IRS may take up to a week to update your return status.

If for any reason, there is an issue, the IRS will notify you by mail.

You can always call them. 1-800-829-1040

There are a few ways you can track your tax return.

If you filed your tax return through TurboTax, you can view the status of your tax return by going to this site: https://turbotax.intuit.com/tax-tools/wheres-my-refund/
You may also track the status of your return by visiting: https://www.irs.gov/refunds
There is also an app: https://www.irs.gov/newsroom/irs2goapp

Go to our e-file status lookup tool to get your current status (Accepted, Rejected, or Pending)

If Accepted:

If your federal return is accepted by the IRS, use the federal tax refund website to check the refund status - https://www.irs.gov/refunds

If your state return is accepted, use this TurboTax support FAQ to check the state tax refund status - https://ttlc.intuit.com/questions/1899433-how-do-i-track-my-state-refund

Some tax returns take longer to process than others for many reasons, including when a return:

Includes errors
Is incomplete
Is affected by identity theft or fraud
Includes a claim filed for an Earned Income Tax Credit or an Additional Child Tax Credit. See Q&A below.
Includes a Form 8379, Injured Spouse Allocation, which could take up to 14 weeks to process
Needs further review in general

Also, the IRS cannot issue EITC and ACTC refunds before mid-February. The IRS expects the earliest EITC/ACTC related refunds to be available in taxpayer bank accounts or debit cards starting Feb. 27, 2018 (estimate), if these taxpayers chose direct deposit and there are no other issues with their tax return.

If Rejected—If the IRS spots something missing or contradictory (for example, if two ex-spouses both list the same children as dependents), the IRS will “reject” the return.

If you see “rejected,” you need to do a little more with your return. Read our Rejection FAQ for details.

If Pending—This means your return is still in transit or the IRS is backlogged and hasn’t processed it yet.

After January, it usually takes the IRS at least 24-48 hours to process your return, so you may see “Pending” for a couple of days or more. (During January, it often takes longer.)
