Why is my refund saying pending now, after all this time was saying accepted?

It was accepted on the 01/25 and now I check is saying pending.

On the IRS website for the status of the federal tax refund it shows Pending?  Or does it show Processing?

https://www.irs.gov/refunds

 

After the tax return has been Accepted by the IRS (meaning only that they received the return) it will be in the Processing mode until the tax refund has been Approved and then an Issue Date will be available on the IRS website.
