What check are you asking about? Are you asking when your income tax refund will arrive?
TurboTax gives you an estimated date for receiving your refund based on a 21 day average from your date of acceptance, but it can take longer. “21 days” is not a promise from TurboTax or the IRS.
First, check your e-file status to see if your return was accepted:

Once your federal return has been accepted by the IRS, only the IRS has any control. TurboTax does not receive any updates from the IRS. Your ONLY source of information about your refund now is the IRS.
You need your filing status, your Social Security number and the exact amount (line 35a of your 2022 Form 1040) of your federal refund to track your Federal refund:

If you chose to have your TurboTax fees deducted from your federal refund, that will take some extra time, while the third party bank handles the refund processing.

Is your question about the settlement? If so, you have been misinformed and have unrealistic expectations if you think you will receive hundreds of dollars.
The settlement agreement covers users who used TurboTax in 2016, 2017 or 2018. If you are one of the affected users you will receive about $30 for each of those years in which your income was $34,000 or less and in which you started in the Free Edition and were upgraded to a paid version of the software.

"Covered Consumer" means any individual, or individuals if a joint return was filed, who in Tax Years 2016, 2017, or 2018 was (1) eligible to use an Intuit IRS Free File Product; (2) began his or her tax returns using a TurboTax Free Edition Product; (3) was informed that he or she was ineligible to use a TurboTax Free Edition Product; (4) subsequently paid to use a TurboTax Paid Product, and (5) had not used the Intuit IRS Free File Product in a previous tax year.
You do not have to “sign up” or get on a list. The payments will be sent out automatically to the affected users.
Turbotax is always "free to start" and the final fee is always determined by the forms you need for your return. The fees are always disclosed up front and if you agree to them, you pay them. If you don't agree, you can quit and look for another provider.
The only settlement is for customers whose income was less than $34,000. These customers would be entitled to file for free under the IRS FreeFile program, even if they had complex returns, and the lawsuit alleged that Turbotax made the FreeFile version hard to find and hard to use, and forced or tricked customers into using the paid version.
If you are one of those customers with income under $34,000 who used a paid version, turbotax knows your name and address and will mail a check.
Well let's see what happens when I go too file mine
