When will my return stop saying pending ?

[Nikihic7778]

My acceptance date was estimated to be today 1-31-22 

Nothing has changed and I’m not sure what is going on.. I applied for the advance and was approved. I desperately need the advance as i have a 1 and 2 year old and we are without a car at the moment because mine broke down last week. Was hoping this money could get us back with wheels… can anyone help me figure out what’s going on??

Geez, we went thru this LAST YEAR for those of us who filed before February. There was a software issue with one of the forms and it took forever until an update was pushed out to fix the issue. Our returns were sitting in limbo like yours and once it was finally rejected due to some forms not being correct due to the software issue, we applied the software update and re-submitted. Magically within 2 hours it was finally accepted. 

I told myself I will wait until March to e-file but here I am about to e-file before February. I may just wait...I can almost guarentee it's a software update that is needed to correct a form(s) within the software.
