My 2022 returns were rejected as I received emails. However, when I go into Turbotax desktop to correct them, they are showing as pending so they won't let me fix the issue.  Please help.

    At some point in the near future, it will move to "Accepted" or "Rejected". 

    If it is Rejected, go ahead and do what the email says to make corrections and resubmit the return. If you need help with a particular error, you can then contact support. 


    When your e-filed return comes back as rejected, it just means that the IRS has sent your return back to you for correction. To fix your reject, sign back in to TurboTax and follow the instructions to correct the error. Please see the information in this TurboTax FAQ here for assistance.

    It has now been over 10 days since I received the email saying it was rejected, but the return is still showing pending.  When you say it'll switch over from pending in the "near future", how do you define near future?  Days? Weeks? Months?  Thank you for your help!

    We do not have an exact timeframe of when your return will switch from pending to rejected. If you would like to speak with someone, please feel free to contact Customer Support.
