No "Expert" addressed the typical timeline to status the progress of the e-file (1099NEC and alike): The first status is "e-file processing" then to "Sent"? to "accepted".? How long before the client can confirm that the file has indeed been sent to the IRS? For Turbo Tax, the next step is generally "accepted" (1-3 days). It would be nice to have a note on the creation page, so the client is informed and ensured that the that the application is working as expected. Also list known errors and what actions to take should they arise.
