How do I find out if my return was accepted
You'll need to sign in or create an account to connect with an expert.
Did you e-file? Did you click a big orange button that said “Transmit my returns now?”
When you e-file your federal return you will receive two emails from TurboTax. The first one will say that your return was submitted. The second email will tell you if your federal return was accepted or rejected. If you e-filed a state return, there will be a third email to tell you if the state accepted or rejected your state return.
First, check your e-file status to see if your return was accepted:

If the IRS accepted it, what does it say here?
https://www.irs.gov/refunds Or does your account say “Ready to Mail?”
Note: If it says “Ready to Mail” or “Printed” that means YOU have to mail it yourself. TurboTax does not mail your tax return for you.
Check on Where’s My Refund? it has the most up to date information available about your federal refund. The tool is updated daily (usually overnight) so you will just usually need to check once a day. To check on a state refund please visit your state Department of Revenue website.
