Has it taken anyone else longer than two days for the IRS to accept your tax return? I filled on the 11th and it's still pending? Is it the shutdown ?

A small test batch was recently accepted by the IRS. Everyone else gets to wait
The IRS will not begin to accept/reject returns until January 28. Until then, e-filed returns will just be sitting on a server, waiting. You will receive an email after that date letting you know if your return was accepted or rejected. It will probably take several days after January 28 for them to work through the backlog of returns on the server.

So if a return is "accepted" before that date, the IRS is just testing their systems.
