At this point for me, I have the IRS tool figured out (very simple/straight forward tool therefore their FAQs pretty much cover every detail).
So with that being said, my questioning has to do with TurboTax (at this point) because their FAQs don’t cover the aspects of the software/service I’m questioning. I know that TT’s correspondence does not use the term Approved. I had specifically said that the wording in TT’s correspondence (the second email you will receive from TT; the Accepted email in my case) made it seem as though..
me receiving that Accepted email, means the IRS Approved my return and all that’s happening now is I’m waiting for my return to get deposited.
So basically, although TT has sent me both Accepted emails, I’m still waiting for my return to get Approved by the IRS before I’m waiting for my return to get deposited…?
I know the first email from TT states the return is pending and that I would be waiting for the accepted or rejected email; even though after being accepted.. technically the status of my return with the IRS is actually pending and that it’s only been RECEIVED by the IRS.
TT needs to be more clear and concise… the accepted email means the IRS either RECEIVED your return (& it’s now pending review) or they REJECTED IT/TURNED IT AWAY (it’s not pending review). The next email we get should state that the IRS has reviewed the return and its either approved or denied. Last email should state when the return has been issued/potential deposit date.
