Still pending after two days

I filed on 1/29/2026 and as of 1/31/2026 it is still not accepted or rejected. Has anyone had this problem and if so, how long did it take to finally be accepted?

Still pending after two days

Delays can be caused by many factors, including

  • Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) or Additional Child Tax Credit (ACTC) causes automatic delays until at least mid-February.
  • There may be errors on the return.
  • You may have missing information.
  • Some of your data posted may not match IRS files
