State/Federal Returns Accepted

I finished and filed my taxes yesterday.  Previously, I have always received 2 confirmation emails, usually within about 10 minutes, one saying "State Return Accepted" and the other "Federal Return Accepted."  This time, I never received those emails.  Any idea why?  Everything went smoothly when completing my return.

    When you e-file your federal return you will receive two emails from TurboTax.  The first one will say that your return was submitted.  The second email will tell you if your federal return was accepted or rejected.  If you e-filed a state return, there will be a third email to tell you if the state accepted or rejected your state return.

     

    First, check your e-file status to see if your return was accepted:

    https://turbotax.intuit.com/tax-tools/efile-status-lookup/

    If the IRS accepted it, what does it say here? 

    https://www.irs.gov/refunds           Or does your account say “Ready to Mail?”

     

    Note: If it says “Ready to Mail” or “Printed” that means YOU have to mail it yourself.  TurboTax does not mail your tax return for you.
