Can you tell me how is my tax return already accepted? Your website says the IRS will not accept taxes until January 29th. Just wondering how mines got accepted prior?

(If you got an "accepted by the IRS" message, and not just the "successfully transmitted by Turbotax" message) The IRS takes some returns early for testing.  We have no way of knowing when, how many, or who will be chosen.  But you may be one of the first.

Yes I have an email from TurboTax on Jan 13th that says my e-file was submitted successfully. Then i received another email yesterday Jan 17th. That says my federal return was accepted at 4pm. Then another that said my State taxes were accepted at 9pm
