Get your taxes done using TurboTax

I know this can be quite frustrating!  Unfortunately, there isn't a way to speed the process up.

 

"Pending" doesn't indicate that there is any problem, just that your return is still in line - waiting for either the IRS or your state to pick it up out of the queue and process it. 

 

Most returns move out of this status within 48 hours of the date that the IRS or state begins to accept returns but sometimes, it can take a little bit longer.  

 

As soon as your return status changes, you will get an e-mail or text message (if you signed up for text alerts.)
