Once you have properly gone through the filing process, your return will show as Pending.

This means that we're waiting for the IRS to come around and pick it up.

It will then be accepted or rejected.

 

You can use the IRS tool Where's My Refund to check if your e-filed return has been received.

Also see the TurboTax article How do I check my e-file status?

DID YOU E-FILE?

 

Did you e-file?   Did you go through all three steps of the FILE section and click a big orange button that said “Transmit my returns now?”

 

 

When you e-file your return you will get two emails from TurboTax.  The first one will say your return has been transmitted; the second one will tell you the IRS has accepted  or rejected your federal e-file.  If you filed a state return, there will be a third email (usually a day or two later) that tells you if the state e-file was accepted or rejected.

 

Check your e-file status:

 What does it say in your account?  Does it show that the return was accepted?   Or does it say something else---like "rejected," "printed," or "ready to mail?”
