What is shown at the Tax Home of your Online TurboTax?   Does it say accepted, rejected, printed, started, or something else?

Many states (like Michigan, Colorado, and Illinois) have updated their security protocols for 2026.  Thus, State Status may show "Not Found" (because the return is sitting in a secure holding queue waiting for identity verification or fraud filters).

 

The state website usually won't update until they actually begin the manual or automated "check-through" phase, which can take 30+ days during peak volume.

 

Most states will mail you a physical letter if they need you to verify your identity before they will "receive" the return into their system.

@pkaunang  and @Gygymew 

 

Oops!  I forgot to put the link to the Colorado thread before I pressed "post", but I have now added it below.

 

If your TurboTax Tax Home page confirms that your efiled Colorado state return was indeed "accepted", there is a known delay problem in returns showing up in that Colorado refund lookup tool.    You can join the discussion in the following thread that was set up by user @tjbc   for Colorado users.  Look at their experiences with that tool there, and they may be able to offer you some suggestions.
