The bar dissapearing... does it mean anything?

I've read various sites about this but trust the TurboTax group more.

Does this mean anything? Or is it a normal glitch with the IRS? I lost my bars Monday morning and they still haven't come back.

Most likely it means that they are still processing your return and does not mean there is anything wrong.

 

Here is the process that all returns go through:
