The efile status on TT for my account shows the federal and state were both transmitted on 3/19 and I received the email stating returns were filed and would receive another email within 24-48 hours would show accepted or rejected.
This link you supplied indicates TT may be reviewing still? That it wasn’t actually submitted to IRS or state? Again the email says it was.
So why would IRS not accept or reject the return within the 48 hours. I’ve used other online tax services in the past and always received an acceptance email within a few hours.

Pending simply means that your e-filed return is on its way and that the government hasn't accepted or rejected it yet. Sometimes it can take a bit longer. Continue to check back - If your returns for some reason are Rejected, we will let you know and provide instructions on how to re-submit.
