Per the IRS, you should see one of three statuses: return received, return approved, or refund sent. Where are you seeing pending, as I don't see that as a usual IRS status? If your return was just recently accepted, the IRS may not have an updated status or may come back with no information found. For best results you should check the status of the refund approximately 24-48 hours after TurboTax notifies you that the IRS accepted your return. In January, this time-frame may be a bit longer until they clear out the back log of returns.
