Why is my federal return still in PENDING status? I called yesterday and spoke to a turbo tax "expert", supposedly hadn't been transmitted yet. What is the hold up.

No, if you Efiled by midnight on 04/15/2025, your return will be considered as filed timely.

Thank you. If it’s showing pending on TT how do I know the IRS got it? It’s not showing on the IRS website as even being received. I submitted them on 4/13

At this time of year, it could take up to 72 hours to show on the IRS site.
