How long does the pending status last for the IRS accepting tax return

The IRS will not start accepting 2024 tax returns until January 27, 2025.

@DoninGA is correct about the date IRS will start accepting returns. TurboTax will notify you when your Federal return has been accepted for processing. Accepted means your tax return was received and has passed initial inspection, such as correct Social Security number and correctly claimed dependents.

 

For more information about processing the state return after the Federal, please see this TurboTax help article.
