I filed my 2020 Federal & State returns electronically on 2/1/21. Both the Federal and State are still 'Pending" after over 2 weeks. This is extremely unusual because I've electronically filed every year forever and I've helped friend file and theirs have been accepted after just a couple of days. What's up with mine???
Your tax returns will remain Pending until the IRS starts pulling tax returns from the TurboTax servers. It may be several days after the IRS start date before your tax return gets accepted or rejected.
The IRS has to pull millions and millions of tax returns from servers throughout the country after the official IRS start date of 02/12/2021.
After completing the File section and e-filing your tax return you will receive two emails from TurboTax. The first email when your tax return was transmitted and the second email when the tax return has either been accepted or rejected.
