That's normal. Even though it's possible to efile now, the IRS hasn't opened up return processing yet this year, so the 24-48 hour clock hasn't started yet . The IRS opens up to start processing returns on Monday, January 27. If you efiled before then, your return will just sit on TurboTax servers until the IRS retrieves it on January 27 (except for a few returns that are pulled early for testing purposes.) So, unless it's pulled early, you'll need to wait until January 27 (or likely a day or two after) to know if your return was accepted/rejected. The IRS can be backlogged when it first opens up each year.
