Please know that is the IRS that must approve your return, not TurboTax. It varies, but normally it takes 24-48 hours. Also, the identity-protection safeguards implemented by the IRS in recent years may account for longer wait times. Eventually, you will receive an email letting you know whether your return has been accepted or rejected.

Pending simply means that your e-filed return is on its way and that the government hasn’t accepted or rejected it yet.

If you contact the government or try to look up your refund status while your return is still pending, don’t be surprised if they tell you “No record found.” This is normal; until the government starts reviewing and processing your return, they won’t have any record of it.
