Level 2

Since they are not accepting until January 29 most likely you’ll have a status update the same or any time next week. Some of us filed early so don’t think it will take the long.

Level 14

When you e-file, it typically takes 24 to 48 hours for the IRS to accept your return. Once your return is accepted, you are on the IRS' refund timetable. The IRS typically issues refunds in less than 21 days after your e-filed return is accepted.

The IRS will start accepting returns for e-filing on January 29th so your return may be accepted as early as February 1.
