After you file

Does that FAQ apply to everyone, or only to people who get an email from Turbotax?  I don't think it's true that all tax returns taking more than 48 hours are under review by Turbotax.

Once a tax return is deposited in the "data warehouse" it is up to the IRS to connect and download it.  No one really knows what their schedule is or how often they connect.  They shut down for 6 hours every Sunday for maintenance, but they don't disclose their regular schedule that I know of.  They might take weekends off early in the tax season, or have a computer problem updating for new tax rules.
