I was expecting to recieve an e-mail within 48 hours of the time I filed, telling me if the irs had accepted or rejected my return. It’s been 72 hrs and no emails.

It usually takes 24-48 hours for a tax return to get accepted. However, the identity-protection safeguards implemented by the IRS in recent years may account for longer wait times. Many different factors can affect the timing of your refund after the IRS receives your return for processing.

You can check your e-file status by following the instructions below.
