My Hawaii Tax return has remained in pending for five days now. In years past this has never happened before?

The Internal Revenue Service has announced that the nation’s tax season will begin Monday, January 29, 2018. Some states start processing e-filed returns at the same time as the IRS, while others don't start processing until sometime later. 

It is not uncommon for state returns to remain in pending status several days after the federal return has already been accepted.
