What does it exactly mean that the IRS accepted my return?

When you receive confirmation that the IRS accepted your return, it means that they have reviewed your return, and it has passed their initial inspection. They verify your personal information and other basic items, like if your dependents have already been claimed by someone else.

The next step is for the IRS to process your return and then give you a refund date.

To add: You can check the status of your return/refund on the IRS website, Where's My Refund.
