Yes, I've seen that story and others like it. Again, the question is NOT about our returns being actually processed - it is about their being acknowledged as received. When I've submitted returns in the past, I have always received an initial message that my return was received and awaiting processing, and then a second message after it was processed. There's a big difference between the two. In this case, I have yet to hear from anyone whose TurboTax electronically submitted Colorado return has even been received at all. It's perfectly understandable that processing would take much longer if there's a "backlog," but there's no rational reason that the state wouldn't simply receive electronically submitted returns if they were properly transmitted.
