This is absolutely insane and infuriating! It has been well over a month now, because I thought I would give them some time. I filed on march 22, today is April 27th and my return still says it’s pending! What is going on???
After completing the File section and e-filing your tax return you will receive two emails from TurboTax. The first email when your tax return was transmitted and the second email when the tax return has either been accepted or rejected.
What is the status of the e-filed tax return as indicated by the email you received from TurboTax?
After the tax return has been Accepted by the IRS (meaning only that they received the return) it will be in the Processing mode until the tax refund has been Approved and then an Issue Date will be available on the IRS website.

Pending or Processing?
Check Where's my refund? at IRS.gov to see if IRS has your tax return.
If you have no refund and no Online Account at IRS, you have to call IRS to find out whether or not you did file a tax return.
