How long does it take the irs to accept your federal and state tax return after it has been filed electronically. We filed on Sat. February 3, 2018

[JenniferLO · Accepted solution]

Your e-filed return will remain in Pending status until the government has accepted or rejected it...typically 24-48 hours for Federal returns.  State returns may stay in Pending for several days or longer.

There are a few ways you can track your tax return.

• If you filed your tax return through TurboTax, you can view the status of your tax return by going to this site: https://turbotax.intuit.com/tax-tools/wheres-my-refund/

• You may also track the status of your return by visiting: https://www.irs.gov/refunds

• There is also an app: https://www.irs.gov/newsroom/irs2goapp
