Only if pulled for testing of their computer systems. That's the risk when submitting early.

Is the official open date the 29th?

Print out that accepted notification and keep it forever. If things don't go well during the testing phase (and they rarely do) and the IRS loses it and later accuses you of not filing that return, then without proof, you lose.

Actually, submitting your taxes early is a gamble. When you submit your tax return, it's sent to a submission server that only the IRS can access. There it sits until the IRS pulls it. Now the IRS does do testing of there systems prior to the official start date by pulling a few returns. If a return gets pulled for a test, that does not mean it will get processed first, or any sooner or faster. They're just testing. The bigger issue is, I've never known a test to go perfect the first time. So if that testing with your return really screws up and your return is lost, you'll be waiting a looooong time for any refund. More than likely you'd be getting a letter from the IRS in about 2 years asking where your 2017 return is. THen you'll have to print, sign and mail it to the IRS. On top of that, if you can't prove the IRS accepted it before the deadline, you'll pay interest, penalties and late fees on that return. EVen if you have a refund coming it's perfectly possible for you to be assessed late filing fees, unless you can prove the IRS accepted it. Your only proof is that acceptance e-mail. So if you don't have that, you lose.

Save that printout forever too. If the IRS comes back in 5 years and says you didn't file it, then without that printout, you didn't file it.

I filed mine Friday (2-2) and was accepted an hour later. I’m not expecting either state or federal until the end of the month due to the eic and dependents.

I got my state back but no Federal. Still say processing....

I got my state back but no Federal. Still say processing. And TurboTax said they accepted my return on 1/22. Kinda strange
