The IRS is not officially accepting returns until January 29. The 24-48 hours starts once the IRS has opened for filing.

 

2024 tax filing season set for January 29; IRS continues to make improvements to help taxpayers

Please see the TurboTax FAQ What does "Pending" mean? for additional information.
