Pending means that your e-filed return is on its way and that the government hasn't accepted or rejected it yet. The IRS will begin accepting returns on January 27, 2020.

Probably because the IRS has to process a backlog of several million tax returns submitted by early filers before the official start date of January 27.

If you claimed an erroneous Recovery Rebate Credit (RRC) on line 30 of the 2020 1040 tax return, it almost certainly will delay your tax refund some amount of time.

 

The IRS says that it will issue 9 out of 10 refunds to taxpayers in less than 21 days.  However, if: 

  • You have e-filed your 2020 Federal tax return,
  • You are claiming a Recovery Rebate Credit (RRC) on line 30 of the 2020 1040 tax return, and
  • Your tax return has been accepted by the IRS.  

We suspect that the IRS will scrutinize stimulus payments that were issued against the tax returns that claim the Recovery Rebate Credit. We do not know how much delay that the IRS will incur in such cases.

 

IRS live phone assistance is extremely limited at this time.  For stimulus payment questions, call 800-919-9835.

 

Follow the TurboTax COVID Tax Center and the IRS Economic Impact Payment Information Center for further developments.

Three things could happen:

  • The IRS rejects your return, you can correct your mistake.
  • The IRS may accept your return and remove the additional stimulus after checking their database.
  • The IRS accepts your return and sends full refund, then you will need to amend your return.
