At the very start of the tax season (i.e. now), it can take the state up-to a week to respond after the Fed is "accepted".

 

In March..it would normally be within 48 hrs

    I checked with my state on status of my return. It states they DON'T have a copy of my state return?

    Is there a glitch in this years program?

    If your state tax return is Pending then your state has not yet pulled the state tax return from the TurboTax server.
