You would just need to wait. The IRS is long-delayed due to Covid, Cares Act, the Stimulus and the American Rescue Plan Act. They are backlogged. Some of the returns will require more time to review.
I seen another post that it could have gotten rejected and if that's the case why is turbotax holding it up?? Why not just send me an email to fix my return it's been 48hrs
There are certain procedures TurboTax must follow in compliance with the IRS. Pending simply means that your e-filed return is on its way and that the government hasn't accepted or rejected it yet.
If you e-filed your return before February 12, it'll stay in Pending status until the IRS starts processing the backlog of returns.
After that, e-filed returns generally sit in Pending status for 24–48 hours before coming back as either Accepted or Rejected. Sometimes state returns stay in Pending for several days or even longer.
Keep calm and check back
Until your state or the IRS processes your return, you may hear there's "no record found." That actually means the return's still being processed. Just check back in a few days.
