FEDERAL RETURN

[Brittanyxvo]

My federal says accepted on turbo tax but it’s saying processing? Anyone know why this means

[DoninGA · Accepted solution]

Once a tax return has been Accepted by the IRS or a State, TurboTax receives no further information concerning the tax return or the status of any tax refund.

After the tax return has been Accepted by the IRS (meaning only that they received the return) it will be in the Processing mode until the tax refund has been Approved and then an Issue Date will be available on the IRS website.
